Chance McMinn's wife, Stephanie, revealed an incredible story about how God cured her husband's paralysis. The story comes across as a miracle because doctors gave the man 72 hours to live after he fell from a four story building window on July 23, 2011.

"The past three years have been really tough," said Mrs. McMinn in a recent interview with the Walton Sun, "But Chance keeps beating the odds. He continues to heal. We've put our trust in God and we know He will restore Chance fully. God is not a halfway God-He does full restoration."

Mr. McMinn suffered multiple injuries to his pelvic bone, lungs, and he severely damaged his brain as a result of the fall when he was still an alcoholic three years ago.

"He had to have five blood transfusions. Doctors told his mom he didn't have a chance, but she said 'Oh yes he does,' and that's where his name came from," said Stephanie in a previous interview to the NWF Daily News last year.

Stephanie talked about what happened as result of the near tragedy that nearly claimed the life of her husband.

"Prior to this accident, Chance was living for Chance," said Stephanie, "He's always been a good-hearted, generous guy, but he was a little wild and consumed of the world. Now he sees the importance of putting God first."

The BeGenerous co-founder (a Christian non-profit organization that helps people in need, and evangelizes the gospel of Jesus) also revealed what God told her husband in her most recent interview.

"God told Chance that he was born to do this in a process," said Stephanie to the Walton Sun, "Chance needed to heal from the inside-out, so he has been very patient with all of this."

In another interview, Mr. Minn expressed his thanks to God for all he has done for him and his family during the good times and the bad times.

"I see myself totally healed [in 2014]," said McMinn to the NWF Daily News last year, when he accurately predicted that he would walk again, "I'm believing for a complete miracle, voice and all."

Chance hopes that his unique story of perseverance can be an example to people who are dealing with difficult times in their life.

"I want to help others who struggle with addiction," said Chance to the Walton Sun a few days ago, "Anyone who is struggling with alcohol or any addiction, please reach out to me so I can lift you up."
