Miracles happen — there’s no denying this. And one family is certainly grateful for the miracle that kept their daughter alive after she fell 30 feet inside a hollow tree, and somehow survived.

A nine-year-old girl who plummeted 30ft headfirst down the inside of a hollow tree claims she ‘went to heaven and sat in Jesus’s lap’ while unconscious after the fall.

Her mother, Christy Wilson Beam, 42, has spoken of her amazement after Annabel, now 12, escaped the horrifying accident unscathed – even waking miraculously cured of a devastating illness that had plagued her childhood.

For the first time in her life, she can eat solid food – and her mother thinks her brush with Jesus is the reason why.

In December, 2011, Annabel was playing outside the family’s Texas home with her sisters Abigail, now 14 and Adelynn, now ten, when she slipped and fell inside a hollowed-out cottonwood tree.

Mum Christy said: ‘She hit her head three times on the way down and this is consistent with the findings of an MRI scan.

‘With the facts in front of me now, I see it all with sickening clarity.

… In the days following the accident, Annabel began to talk of religious visions she experienced while lying unconscious.

She told her parents: ‘I went to heaven when I was in that tree. I sat in Jesus’ lap.’

… ‘[She described] some of what she’d experienced while inside the tree – how the gates of Heaven are made of gold, how Jesus told her it wasn’t time.’

Initially, Christy was concerned that Annabel was indicating a head injury, but MRI and CT scans revealed she had not sustained one.

Further tests also revealed Annabel had remarkably stopped displaying symptoms of pseudo-obstruction motility disorder, a rare incurable condition that had seen her in and out of hospital since 2008.

Doctors advised she could begin to come off the antibiotics she had been taking for years.

Instead of taking ten different types of medication throughout the day, she only needed three, and the painkillers that were prescribed ‘as and when she needed them’ were not required at all.

Previously, Annabel’s medication meant she had to have a liquid diet or stick to soft, bland food – but now, she can happily tuck into pizzas and McDonald’s happy meals.

The family have gone more than a year without a single visit to the doctor.

There’s no way to know if her story about going to Heaven and meeting Jesus is true or not. But a miracle obviously happened here, because this girl not only survived an accident that could have killed her, but also seems to be cured of a disease. God may very well be the only explanation.
