A MIRACLE - How does it get better than this.


What a great news story -

The amazing story of survival by Jamie Neale, a British tourist, who decided to go for a bush walk. He set off from his accommodation in Katoomba, in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney, Australia, to walk a 10 hours hike only to re-emerge 12 days later. He walked into a makeshift campsite of 2 campers after spending 12 days and nights in the freezing cold. THIS IS A MIRACLE.

The 19-year-old, who became lost during a day hike on July 3, emerged from the bush on gaunt and scratched, but in relatively good health.

Huddling under logs or just his jacket on freezing nights, Jamie Neale thought he was going to die, but somehow survived 12 days lost in the harsh Australian bush, eating seeds and weeds. His father (Richard Cass) reported to media that Jamie said "He was eating seeds, he ate some sort of weed which was like rocket, as he described, a kind of lettuce".

Mr Cass was at the airport when he received a text message from the search team commander – that they had located is son. They had their reunion at Katoomba Hospital.

Wonderful men and women spent many hours and days searching for Jamie in the bush. What wonderful people they are to sacrifice their time and safety to help a fellow man in trouble. The outcome was well worth it and brings great Joy to many people all over the world.

The message. “NEVER GIVE UP – A MIRACLE COULD BE ON THE WAY”.
