The flutter of an eyelash or wiggle of a toe were the signs the parents of Davin Rowland desperately needed to tell them their son was still here with them. A rush of emotion came over them as their tall, blonde 20-year-old emerged from a weeks-long coma after the work truck in which he had been riding shotgun collided with an 18-wheeler on a Mississippi highway.

“God orchestrated” a miracle, says his mom, Jennifer Rowland, 46, recalling how a battalion of rescuers pulled up in time with the powerful metal cutters needed to free their son from the cage of twisted metal in the aftermath. And a flight crew arrived with the needed medicine to keep the motorists alive.
