Man Refuses to Take Wife off Life Support, Prays for 2 Months until She Wakes up & Hugs Newborn Son
A pregnant woman from Indiana suffered health complications that forced an emergency C-section. That was only the start of her challenging journey. She spent months in a coma, but her prayerful husband refused to give up.
Autumn and Zack Carver were excited to welcome their third child together. The couple met as teenagers and had a beautiful love story. However, they never expected the painful chapter awaiting them in 2021.
During Autumn’s eighth month of pregnancy, she and Zack fell ill with COVID-19. The doting mother was hospitalized and gave birth to her baby boy, Huxley. He was healthy and happy, but his mother remained in the ICU fighting for her life.

What was supposed to be a happy day became a nightmare for the couple. Zack was completely unprepared and what happened next turned his life and that of his wife upside down.
The Worst Day of Zack’s Life
What was intended to be one of the happiest days in the couple’s life turned out to be the opposite. Zack called it “the worst day in [his] life.” Autumn’s primary doctor didn’t think she would survive the ordeal, and after two months on life support, the professional suggested Zack switch off the machines.
The experience was unforgettable for everyone and meant the world to the sickly mother. The special meeting was an answer to one of Zack’s prayers.
The doctor wanted her husband to let Autumn pass away peacefully. But Zack refused to stop believing his wife would make a full recovery. He prayed for her “every second” of the day and had an army of online prayer warriors trusting God for a miracle. Despite a zero percent chance of survival, they had faith.
Zack’s Request
Zack couldn’t imagine a world without Autumn and said, “I don’t know life without her.” He was heartbroken that his wife hadn’t had the chance to hold their new baby boy, so he made a special request to the doctors.
The loving husband asked them to bring Autumn out of sedation so she could see and hold baby Huxley. He knew it could be the first and last time she did this, so he pleaded with the medical team. They agreed and granted the mother an unforgettable moment with her precious child.
The Memorable Meeting
The experience was imprinted in everyone’s mind and meant the world to the sickly mother. The special meeting was an answer to one of Zack’s prayers. The proud father recalled:
“Her parents, one of her best friends, and many nurses and doctors witnessed the special moment. I don’t know if there was a dry eye in the area. What an amazing day.”
