    The most beautiful thing Brett is that you knew there was a God to be angry with, hence there was faith. God bless you for sharing this miraculous story. Josh, you're a son parents would be proud of. Keep on doing what God has given you to do.

    A true miracle that he survived! The mozam authorities treated him terribly... Demanding his passport when he got to shore.... All he had on was his baggies - how was he supposed to grab his passport as he fell overboard?!! Once we knew he was alive.... My mom made connections with a local mine in the area that was run by SOUTH AFRICANS, they said "he is one of us" and completely took over and returned him back to health 👏🏼 south Africans truly do look out for each other!!!
