A 28-year-old Pensacola Navy vet has been miraculously raised from his deathbed after 10 days of prayer. Doctors had given up all hope after Ethan Preseau’s brain scan showed some terrible news, and plans had already been made for his funeral.

In early June, Preseau moved to Pensacola, Florida where he planned to build a life with his girlfriend, Piper Wade. 

While moving into their new space, Preseau went to his truck for a suitcase and did not return. 

Concerned, Wade checked on Preseau and found him lying unconscious. Shocked and panicked, she immediately acted. 

“You don’t want to see someone that you love in that state,” Piper told WEAR News. “So I just freaked out and I immediately — I don’t know CPR, but I understand what it is, so I tried to do that for a second. But I realized I don’t know what I’m doing, so I ran inside as fast as possible and I called 911 and they were there so fast. Maybe in like 30 seconds they were there.”

The young Navy vet was rushed to the hospital and diagnosed with a heart infection. Preseau spent days on life support, and his family started losing hope.

The hospital called the family with miraculous news, Preseau was awake.
