Julie and Andy Kemp were on their way home from church with their eight-year-old son, Landon, when they were caught in a devastating car crash. Their vehicle was struck by an ambulance rushing back to its station. Sadly, Andy died at the scene, while Julie struggled to stay conscious. Emergency personnel arrived and managed to stabilize her, but they did not initially realize that Landon was still in the car. It wasn’t until they noticed one of his shoes at the scene that they discovered him, hidden in the backseat due to the severe damage to the vehicle.
After multiple efforts, medical staff were able to resuscitate Landon, who had been found unconscious and not breathing. He was then airlifted to the hospital, where he suffered two more cardiac arrests. The outlook for the young boy seemed grim, and his mother was told that his likelihood of survival was very low.
Doctors warned that even if he did pull through, he might not be able to lead a normal life. Instead, he could remain in a condition resembling that of an infant, trapped in the body of an eight-year-old.
In the two weeks after the accident, Julie faced a heartbreaking journey. As she buried her husband, she watched her son fight for his life. Landon had slipped into a coma, and hopes for his survival were fading. Then, against all odds, he opened his eyes. The medical staff hailed his recovery as a miracle, astonished to find that, despite the gravity of his condition, he had suffered no brain damage.
Now that Landon was awake, Julie felt unsure about how to tell him about his father’s death. She asked him if he knew what had happened, and Landon replied: “Yes, I saw him”. He went on to explain that he had also met a friend of his father’s who had died a month before his dad. Landon mentioned seeing that friend’s son as well. “We didn’t say anything, but we were all just standing there”, he recalled.
Julie was surprised when her son mentioned that he had seen her two other children while he was in his coma. At first, she struggled to understand his words, but then a memory came to her mind. Consider the obstacles Landon faced and the actual details of the video linked below. It is sure to reinforce your conviction.

Levi Wright, the young son of rodeo star Spencer Wright, has died.
The three-year-old died after suffering a trаumаtic brain injury from a near-drowning incident on May 21.
Levi was hospitalized at a Salt Lake City hospital after accidentally driving a toy tractor into a river near the family’s home on May 21. Local law enforcement found Levi unconscious about a mile downstream.
Although he was initially declared brain dеаd and not expected to survive, the boy began showing signs of improvement.
“LEVI WOKE UP! I am shook, we don’t know much but the doctor said it was okay for me to get excited about that and I AM! My baby is so tough!” his mother Kallie Wright wrote on Facebook.
Unfortunately, the following day the results of an MRI “wasn’t good.”
“We’re shattered but it is just images that suggest a certain quality of life. Our real teller of all will be what Levi does over the course of a few days,” Kallie shаrеd.
As Levi continued his fight in the hospital, his family and friends continued asking for prayers.
On June 2, Kallie shаrеd devastating news.
“After several sleepless nights, lots of research, multiple conversations with the world’s best neurologists & millions of prayers we are here in the face of our biggest fear,” she wrote. “Levi showed us just enough to buy us time for all of this. We prayed those things were him defying odds & proving to us that he wanted to stay here but we see now he wanted to give us time to find peace with letting him go.”
After countless tests, scans, and consultations, the Wright family took Levi off life support.
The following day, June 3, a family friend, Mindy Sue Clark, confirmed on Facebook that Levi had died.
“I cannot even begin to explain how hard the last two weeks have been. From the moment my phone rang the night of his accident, to last night receiving the message that he had to go. I don’t want to focus on the bad or sad, even though it feels likе someone ripped my heart out and squeezed it right in front of me. I want to focus on the many miracles we all got to bear witness to in those 12 days.”
“The most perfect three year old there ever was. So perfect we didn’t get to keep him. This baby boy moved mountains the last 12 days. He brought so many people together. In a world so dark, we got to see light at the hands of a child. He’s everything his mom and dad could’ve wanted him to be.”
Our prayers are with the Wright family during this extremely difficult time.
