Surviving a massive crash only to be nearly taken down by a tiny speck of dust? That’s Chuck Simons’ astonishing story. Chuck, a former IT programmer, was hit by a giant woodworking machine that fell onto his head while helping his dad in 2014. He ended up in a coma for ten days with his eye socket, cheekbone, and jaw smashed.


Remarkably, Chuck bounced back, but five years later, he was back in hospital, tethered by the same accident. What could be the cause? A small, calcified piece of dust had lodged in his lung during the initial accident. This pesky speck blocked air from reaching his left lung, causing a severe infection. In April 2019, doctors made the tough call to remove that lung entirely.

Chuck recounts: “It’s very sobering to sign a paper that says they’ll cut your chest open. The lung was without air for years, so it had to go.” Despite the ordeal, Chuck remains resilient and sees it as a bizarre twist of fate. Who would’ve thought a speck of dust could cause so much chaos? Life can surprise us in the most unexpected ways! 🌪️✨ #Survivor #MiracleRecovery #LifeUnexpected
