Nick Dellasega should have died on May 7th, 2011, at the age of twenty-six. 

During a 5k race, he collapsed and his heart stopped beating. A teenage cousin prayed fervently at Nick's side, asking particularly for the intercession of Fr. Emil Kapaun, the Kansas-native, Korean-war chaplain. Barely making it to a hospital in time, Nick should have been brain-dead or beyond resuscitation when his pulse restarted. His miraculous case is now being considered by the Vatican for the canonization cause for Fr. Kapaun. 

Nick shares his amazing story with Jackie and the lessons learned in this episode!
