I took a lickin' and kept on tickin' : and now I believe in miracles / Lewis Grizzard.
This is a book about a miracle. There's just no other way to describe what happened. When Lewis Grizzard went in for his heart surgery - a replacement for his much publicized pig valve - he assumed it would be another ordinary, humdrum hospital nightmare. He'd been through plenty of those. Little did he dream that, while on the operating table, his heart would stop. And stop dead in its tracks - the key word here being "dead" - for Lewis Grizzard was, in fact good as gone.His ticker didn't work for three days. He was in a coma for weeks. His doctors said his chances for survival were nil. He even saw the glowing white light at the end of the tunnel. For most people, that would be a sign that heaven was just around the corner. For Lewis - just his luck - it turned out to be a Kmart tire sale
