Makenna Cook - 23-year-old suffers brain aneurysm 

My granddaughter’s head was run over by a Toyota tundra at 18 months old. 14 skull fractures, a brain bleed, 11 days on life support and 7 more in the hospital! She has no idea to this day what a testimony she is to Gods amazing grace! She just turned 5!

We NEED more people like Makenna's dad ❤

God heard Makenna when she fell to her knees and cried out to Him. What a testimony she has...as do all of you who prayed for her. I will join the forces in praying Makenna has a full and complete recovery, in His time. To God be the glory! Fight on, Makenna!

I've always said: There are no "impossibles" for our great God.

My daughter Vanessa too had a brain aneurysm. The day after her 13th birthday our lives changed forever. We too we're told there was nothing they could do. The aneurysm was at the base of her brain. Your testimony is very much like ours. Our daughter is too a Mighty Healing Miracle of our LORD JESUS! God is Faithful. Our daughter is 38 living life in the abundance of our RISEN KING JESUS! Thank You to our Lord Jesus forever! Amen.

I too survived a brain aneurysm on June 29, 2017. They gave me a 3% chance of living. My sister told me my brain was full of blood. My brothers and sisters in Christ prayed over me. I was in a coma for a week, then I started to come completely conscious. It took a while. I stayed in hospital another week or two for therapy. I got wheeled to the front of hospital when I was discharged and got up and walked to my sister’s car. My biggest deficits are a lack of balance and short term memory which is a bit severe. But I am 72 now so I think age has also added on. They found another small aneurysm and several infarcts in my brain but I am still going strong. I will pray for you Makenna. Be encouraged, God is not done yet. You are a miracle and so am I. He still does miracles today. Be blessed.

My son just had one on April 13 on Sunday. Aneurysm and a stroke blood bleeds, you explained everything exactly how it happened to my son. He has made it through. 2 1/2 weeks in UAB Birmingham, Alabama. He is a complete miracle they had to put a shunt in because they could not stop the bleeding. My son is alive because of a miracle working God!!!!! God bless y’all.

My husband had a level four ruptured brain aneurysm.The Drs.gave myself and children little hope of survival.I prayed over my husband asking God for a miracle.There was many prayers by family, friends and clergy.God did do a miracle he is talking and walking two months later.Never give up God does miracles❤

This dad is amazing and so is his daughter

I am a retired RN of 45 years in the ICU and I have never seen a miracle as your daughter. Prayers and hugs

My daughter died thru prolapsed cord without oxygen 42 mins then was delivered blue and black. Doctor yelled at me insisted he was God to name the baby, I rose my hand and told him you’re not my God I’ll show you what my God will do. 6 hours later 3 nurses were at my bed preparing me to go see the miracle, unknown what they were talking about. My baby started crying in the morgue when they rushed her to emergency where I met her. Second I placed my hand at her hand she grasped my hand and stopped crying. All the first responders asked me what God I believe in, I made the sign of the cross and said I am Greek Orthodox, my God is my Heavenly Father! That doctor came in and I fired him, then a pediatrician came and hired her. I5 was the longest road ahead but I am so Blessed in the Mighty Name of Jesus and God the Father is always in my home!

I'm sitting here in a hospital room with my husband crying hysterical for your daughter. My husband had a brain aneurysm and a stroke last Tuesday night. Fortunately our ER is 5 mins from us. As soon as he put his arms around the back of his head and started screaming that something was wrong I took him. Thank God he made it. 2 weeks in now and he is getting his staples out and heading out of ICU. I'm so so sorry for your family. Hugs, thoughts and prayers for you amd everyone involved. ❤🙏💔

My Mother was 7 months pregnant with my older brother, when she suffered a massive brain anerurysm (stroke) She was in a coma for 2 weeks, and in the hospital for 2 months and 9 days. She was completely paralyzed on her left side. She spent her 21st birthday in the hospital. They did not have physical therapy back then. They wanted to brain surgery, but back then, my mother felt it may kill her. My father constantly prayed for her and my brother, along with many others. My Mother made a full recovery. It took years to build up her strength. She had to learn to walk all over again, by holding onto a wooden chair and pushing it. My Mother was considered a miracle, and she took a chance to have me, 5 years later. My Mother lived 52 more years, until she got brain cancer and died. I fell so blessed to have the parents I was given. I do believe in miracles. They did not think my Mother would make it, either, and she did to live a good life for 52 more years.

What an amazing miracle God worked. He is still on the throne doing miracles everyday.

14 years ago our son who was 6 at the time received a traumatic brain injury from falling out of a tree. He fell 8-10 feet onto pavement. He sustained a 6” skull fracture along with bleeding, bruising and swelling on her brain. He was in a medical induced coma for 13 days. The drs said they couldn’t tell us how the brain damage would affect him until he woke up and showed us. He’s now 20 years old and has made a full recovery. He’s a very hard construction worker who plans to start his own business soon. I know that God has a special plan for his life. He’s been such a blessing to us. He is one of 14 kids and a shining light in our family

What an awesome testimony! Praise God ! I had a subaracnoid hemorrhage aneurysm right in the middle of my brain. They couldn't operate, and my huge family was told I would die. I was flown to Temple Texas .I was and am a children's pastor. My world was also held together by God. I was in a coma for almost a year . Every time they put me in long-term care, something would go wrong and sent back to the hospital. I did have a trac tube and a feeding tube. I was prayed for all over the world. It's 20 years now. I was a soup sandwich. Piece by piece and day by day Prayer by prayer God has mended me back together. I'm living a life never promised. I have 8 children a husband and a church full of love. I pray the best and the most for your baby girl. God bless each one of you. Angela

My step daughter ruptured when she was 30 ,, shes now 60 and became a nurse!

I am so, so happy for you and your family ❤❤❤my wife just had a brain aneurysm in April 2024 she is 64 years old and I KNOW FOR SURE THAT THERE IS A GOD!!!!! My wife after the drain line was installed suffered alot of pain in her back and legs, after 2-1/2 weeks they had to put in a shunt and with in 36 hours of that we were discharged from the hospital and now we are home. I have my wife and i Thank our GOD for his unfailing love for us. We don’t know what is going to happen next with her recovery from this but as of right now she is doing great. Again I am so happy for you and your family and your daughter!!Praise GOD❤❤

I worked with a lady who survived an aneurysm and had a very low chance to survive. God working miracles all over the place!! 🙏🏻 ❤🙏🏻❤️

I lost two family members to brain aneurysms. Thank you for sharing God's miracle.

Praise the lord. This story needs to be on national TV ,showing the power of prayer,and that GOD IS THE GREAT PHYSCIAN.

Her parents faith and love healed her❤

Never underestimate the power of praying to our Almighty God. Praying for her complete recovery. Praise our God forever and ever 🙏✝️🙏💓

This was my Sister, Sir! My Mom advocated just like you, for her life! Yes, Sir! We Serve a Miracle Working, Resurrecting God!!!!!! Praise Him!!!!!

As a retired nurse she’s a wonderful miracle. God bless this family and their faith. God is wonderful!

My son Trevor had a traumatic brain injury at 8. We went through so much just like you. He just turned 40 April 27th. He was a miracle also. The Doctor told us he wouldn't make it through the first night. We are proof God has the last say so. Always trust in the Lord, we did. Much love to you and your family.

I lost my best friend to a brain aneurysm when she was 25. My dad's father died from one at 50. My maternal grandfather had an aortic aneurysm and died at 67. On my husband's side, his mother, his sister, and his mother's sister (his aunt) all died in their 60's from brain aneurysms. Just a terrible thing to happen to anyone. I'm glad God helped Makenna through to healing again. It was not her time to join him in Heaven. Faith in God has gotten me through the darkest times in my life (losing my husband in a traumatic and unexpected manner when I was 38 and he was only 40), raising our two children on my own. Battling chronic hereditary recurrent depressive disorder. When I feel unable to take another step, God lifts my foot and moves it to the next step for me. I have no fear with God walking beside me.

GOD IS GOOD!! Makenna is an absolute miracle!! Praying for her continued healing!!🙏🙏❤️

Hallelujah hallelujah Hallelujah, thank God for COMPLETE HEALING!!!

I love this story so much.her dads voice is like a tonic and to see such a man of faith is magnificent. ❤️

Amazing she live with that. My mother died of an aneurysm. They said there was nothing they could do but I look forward to seeing her in the resurrection in Paradise. That’s amazing she made it through. That’s wonderful.🥰❤️

Please pray for my daughter Gennifer, 33 years old. She has endocarditis which is an infection in her inner heart and heart valves and lots of blood clots in her lungs. She is in Intensive care with a high risk of stroke and even death. She has a 4 year old daughter and they really need prayer.

My friend had one of those brain aneurysms. They gave her an 8% chance and spent months in the hospital. Her husband, family and friends played her favorite music, would read to her and we all prayed for her. This happened years ago and she is doing so much better! God is the Great Healer!

I give God all praise, honor and glory for healing this beautiful young lady

On 1-3-24 my husband had the exact same stroke laying in bed at 4:30 AM. I work 12 hour night shifts at the hospital and I am a Respiratory Therapist. That night, however, I was off and at home. I was meant to be off and at home that night. Had I not been home it might have been much worse. My husband spent over a month in neuro ICU and a month in a rehab facility. He’s home now and can drive again. It was an absolute God miracle that he survived. Your story is precious and reminds me that a MD behind your name does not make you GOD. God is our MIRACLE WORKER. I’ll continue to pray for MacKenna. She and my husband are proof GOD still makes miracles happen!!!!!! PRAISE GOD!!!!!!

Nothing is impossible with God. This story proves it. How amazing is our Father. Thank you Jesus! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

My son had a catastropic traumatic brain injury. He's lost a lot except God. He still loves God. It's hard to watch but Gods working it out. Only He can. This father is a hero in the faith.

I had one 10 years ago, I collapsed with in minuets , luckily I was just getting in my daughters car, had to be resuscitated, but I’m a lucky one as I’m still here

Just ran across this video on the heels of spending 56 days in the hospital after a hole in my stomach burst. I had several blood transfusions, cardio aversion procedures, pneumonia, no food for 32 days only IV, no water for 30 days only swabs, critical illness myopathy, couldn't stand or walk for four months, and had to shave my head because of the severe matting and knots in my hair. I had just finished a semester in my graduate school program and ready to celebrate. 🎉 Instead, I had emergency surgery on Christmas Eve. Continued physical therapy and nurse care follow up at home, lost 42 pounds, and almost died twice. This is no comparison by any means, but an acknowledgement of God's goodness! Praising God for his incredible goodness, grace, mercy, and faithfulness. I can now stand, walk, vacuum, climb of flight of stairs (very carefully), and am praising God every step of the way for McKenna and myself. ❤ Exodus 14:14 "The Lord will fight for you; you need only be still." I received this scripture four separate times on this horrible journey and knew that God would be faithful to me because he was at work! In September, I will return to the university to continue my MA program only because of God's goodness! 👩‍🎓Praying for McKenna's continued improvement!

This video brought tears to my eyes. My wife of 40 years suffered a brain aneurysm about two years ago in the middle of COVID. I also suffered a blot clot in the lung due to covid and was in the hospital when she had the aneurysm. I needed to be with her and through the grace of GOD I got better and could be with her. GOD does answer our prayers. As I watched this video my wife is sitting by my side. She is doing well, But like your daughter, she has some short-term memory loss but gets better every day.

Dear Makenna, It is too late for me to pray for your life, but it’s not too late for me to pray for your healing ❤️‍🩹 and your future. I pray for you, for your family, for your friends, for your physicians, nurses, and therapists, and for every soul you have touched already and those you will touch for the rest of your life. From Columbia, MO to Makenna Cook…healing hugs and strength be with you forever and for always. Amen.

Yes, I would’ve never made it without the Lord. My son was in a motorcycle accident and is now a legally blind quadriplegic. He is a miracle as the Lord was with us every step of the way. Amen. Hallelujah for the Lord is great. He can see fuzzy, but he is considered legally blind. He can drive his power wheelchair all over the place by himself. Has taught his self how to play harmonica, Plays at farmers markets, and is an awesome person!❤

I also suffered a brain aneurysm ruptured September 2023.My lord was with me that day he spared mylife.And they found 1 more aneurysm its a size 4mm ,and the clipped aneurysm that had ruptured has a 3mm one growing out of the clipped aneurysm so I have surgery June 2024 my nuro has to go in and fix this 3mm one that has growing out of my clipped one.And August will be my 4mm aneurysm will be done.And I thank the good lord everyday for spareing mylife. And the ruptured brain aneurysm was a 9mm ,I was so so lucky that I survived this but my great lord has saved me .Thank you my great God. Godbless her our great lord saved her life aswell 🙏 🙌. May the good lord heal all that had and has brain aneurysms.Godbless to your family.

Truly your daughter was touched by Amazing Grace❤

I learned of Makenna through The Pressley Girl’s channel and I prayed for her. What a testimony of the faithfulness of God and the importance of who your tribe is! Praise God!

Prayers for McKenna, I survived a brain rupture n I had a few days where recovery seemed questionable. With care from super special neurosurgeon a great care team I am at 95%. I do not question the hands of God was with me in careflight to surgery in another town and continues to stay beside me. I believe without a doubt.

Praise God ! The Same thing happened to me...Baptists filled the waiting room praying..they said 90 percent chance that I would die..ihad a group of family around me praying and i lived!❤

Thank you Lord Jesus. Our grand daughter had an aneurysm at the age of 20, She passed away and I think & pray for her everyday please pray for our daughter ( her Mother) it's so difficult for her.🙏

My mom suffered an AVM when she was 32 and I 8, she was in the hospital for months was supposed to die but by the grace of god she survived. Had to learn how to walk, talk and write all over again but she survived. She has been paralyzed on her left side ever since but has come leaps and bounds from that time. I pray for everyone that goes through this horrible experience ❤

God has a plan for Makenna. She is already living proof of his healing and how prayer is so powerful. We started praying as soon as we found out about Makenna from the Presley girls. We are still praying for total healing of Makenna.

God Bless McKenna I pray she makes a full recovery!

I also had a brain aneurysm in 1982, on my 50th birthday. The doctor clipped the aneurysm and I’m still here at 92 next month. God is good. 6 hour surgery.

I have never cried so much at 8:30 am on a Thursday morning for someone I do t know. And this right here is PROOF of the verse : You can do ANYTHING with Christ “ and here comes the tears again. Tears of faith and love !!!❤️🙏

This is insane! My 23 year daughter had a stroke a few weeks ago. Sadly, test came back COVID issues. Prayers….

As a Paramedic you should always call EMS. I mean unless you can see the Hospital with your eyes, call 911. If for no other reason that its safer for all parties plus Paramedics are a walking ER. They can stabilize you and give the ER a heads up so when you come through the doors the life saving team is awaiting you. Thanks for sharing your story

God, thank you for McKenna’s recovery. What a testimony for your grace she is

Never stop believing in our Lord God!! Many prayers to you Beautiful Family!! 🙏❤

What a wondrous miracle, praise god

Awww, what a miracle!! As a critical care paramedic for the past 14 years we have airlifted a few patients with this and they either die enroute on the way to the hospital or in the OR, or they are brain dead. What a beautiful testimony and a wonderful example of Gods love, power, faith and grace to heal the sick. He says in his Word, lay hands on the sick and they shall recover!! Amen 🙏 The 700 club should pick up your story so millions of people can see the power of prayer and Gods good work! You go Makenna!! You got this! Keep going, keep your strength and faith you will get your life back. Hallelujah!! 🙏❤️🎊

Rarely do i get emotional watching a youtube video. I have to admit, I shed a few tears watching this. Bod bless Makenna..

Praise God for his touch on this young ladies life. He is the beginning and the end. Will be praying for this family.

What an amazing story. God is good. Praise the name of Jesus.

I had an aneurysm rupture when I was 26. Now 58 and everyday I know I am lucky I survived. I had a 1 in 8 chance of survival - fantastic neurosurgeon and team.

Every child deserves a parent like You. God Bless ✨🙏🏽✨

This happened to my mother in 1971 when i was 7 months shy of 14, i came home from school and found her lying face up on the floor with her eyes wide open but she couldn't blink, she passed 4 days later @ the age of 44, so happy for your miracle. 🙏

There is no sin, no illness and no death bigger than the will and power of God. We have access to that power through Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! Praise his Holy Name!

My very young husband passed away from the very same brain injury in 1997 at the age of 39. He was the best husband & father to our 2 sons. I still miss him as much today as I did the day God took him home.

Her father is unspeakably admiral,faithful and humble. That was told with such grace and conviction and a story so inspiring I’ll never forget. Also, that life is very precious and with God it’s full. Bless her and her story and family.

Love, thoughts, and prayers are with you all! My sister n law had an aneurysm bust in her head. She survived. This was back in the 80s. The Dr said she would never walk again. She believed that God will help her walk, My husband took her to the gym to work out. She started walking. Her neurologist was amazed she walked in his office! God is good!

A true testimony of God's power and love.

Thank you for sharing MaKenna's story. I had a stroke on Christmas Eve. It changes your life. I know myself God pulled me through this. My family and friends prayed for me everyday. We are still praying. Through God all things are possible. Teach those babies, your children, middle age and seniors to pray and to know the power of prayers.

In 1962 I was 31/2 years old, I said something about my parents, I was beaten, broken arm, my mom took a razor blade and cut me all over my face, my dad shot me on twice on each side of my head right above my eyes, they put me in the freezer and my dad took me to a body of water and threw me in, I died that night but God said “Not Today” after over 30 years of unimaginable suffering in therapy the Lord had prepared me for his Testimony, and he has prepared me well, I am grateful for every minute I have on this earth and I Love the Lord with all my Heart❤️🙏❤️

Our God is an awesome God. 🙏

I am praying for McKenna right now and in the Mighty name of Jesus that she will be completely healed, Strong and happy~ She is a living miracle ❤

Thank you for your testimony to God's miraculous power. My wife had a ruptured brain aneurysm and i was told she only has a 10 percent chance of living, and if she does make it she will probably be an invalid. She left the hospital 15 days later with no neurological or physical problems. As in your case, many people were praying, and our family had very great Christian support. There are no "chances" with God. May God bless you, your family and Makenna.

What an amazingly strong daddy. God please give McKenna complete healing and let her be a witness of your miracles. Amen

Praise & Glory to our GOD, Lord and Saviour!🤗🙏🥰🕊️✝️

Thank you for your faith. Thank you for your testimony. What a great and mighty God we serve. Hallelujah

Chad, you and Makenna and her family are blessing millions and will continue to do so for a long time. Praise God!

What a beautiful blessing! We got an awesome God!

She will be 100%.

Thank God! I had a brain stroke 6 years ago 5/20/2018. I had left brain injury & cognitive delay. I lost 62.5 yrs of my past life- I'm 69 now- I have bits & pieces of past memories. God is Great! I am a Walking Miracle- my Dr said that people who have my kinda brain injury, people don't get memories back. Everyday is a challenge, but I wouldn't have it any other way, THANK GOD FOR MAKENNA!

In 1983 my daughter also had a massive brain hemerage we took her to Stockholm when we arrived the consultant told us her brain was full of blood she had a refined form of gamma radiation it took her 3years to recover she is now 62 years old I wish you all the very very best my daughter also had holes drilled in her head god bless you all

I'm so happy for you, my son is with Jesus 🙏💔

What an amazing and beautiful story! So happy that McKenna is doing well. God really laid hands on her! God bless you, McKenna and your family 🙏🙏🙏

I'm sitting here at 6am on a Thursday morning crying and praising God...He is So Good!! This truly BLESSED me..Go Makenna!! HE chose you!!❤

God is great. God saved myself and my husband as when each of us was having heart attacks. I was on a plane and my husband had a widow maker heart attack. I prayed and God answered both of my prayers.

Wow, what a sad but beautiful story. He is our healer and STRONG TOWER! Praise His name for the stripes He took for our healing. Can't wait to hear this young lady testify about her journey.

Nothing is impossible with God❤

God is so good. Keep up the hard work nackenna You’re living proof of His grace

Our God is Amazing!!!! Prayers for Makenna to continue to heal!

What an incredible miracle from G-d. Beautiful Makenna, may you live the most wonderful,meaningful life going forward. 💙💙💙

What a testimony this is and will be. God is so very good.

Such a beautiful story. How Makenna was treated by the Great Physician vs. worldly physicians is nothing short of a miracle.

My uncle had a brain aneurysm and spent months in a rehab hospital with the mentality of a child, but he made a full recovery. All the love and prayers for this family

Praise God, for his mercy and grace!

Our God can!! Thank you, Lord, for saving Makenna! ❤

God is the ultimate physician…. I was in tears watching this video.

Very happy to know that Makenna survived and is making great progress towards a full recovery. All the best.

Praise God for healing McKenna! Thank you Jesus for her believing parents!
