Eddie it was a joy doing your show and I’m so proud of your success and how it grown over the years from your humble beginnings. I know your interviews have helped many. I just hope this show can help at least one. If any questions come up I’d be happy to answer them.
God bless you, Pat. Thanks for sharing your remarkable journey.
Pat, thank you so much for sharing. I have a stepson with septo-optic dysplasia... lots of frustrations, health scares, etc.. Your testimony really touched me in a special way.
@@sarahburke8955 my heart goes to you as you journey through this with your stepson. The journey is not always easy nor is it something you’re always willing to do. But every chance you get to find the joy of the moment with him , they’ll be the ones that make the hard times just a moment. My prayers go out to all of your family. May God bless you.
Dear Sir, your story touched me deeply. My Husband and I went through so much of what you did with Your Lance, in 1977. We had an 18mo. Old daughter and then gave birth to twin boys. Little Jeff, the second born, passed away the day he was born. He was the bigger twin. Zachary, the first born, lived 13 days. He no wall between the ventricles of his heart. He was deaf in one ear. We have experienced many of your feelings. I also had my uterus removed the day they were born. We had been welcoming as many children as God would bless us with. We ended up being able to adopt two baby Girls.
You showed many many people, including your dear Son, great love! Lance loved you right back. You and your Wife will only know, in Heaven, how your loving sacrifices affected our world.
Looking at my little Son, in his hospital bed with his arms stretched out,as if he were on a cross, made me realize the pain the our Blessed Mother suffered when she stood beneath His cross!
Thank you Pat. Very moving!
To all of you who have made so many heartfelt and beautiful comments, I am truly grateful for them. This October 27th will be 20 years since he passed and your prayers and comments will be a great comfort for me. From the bottom of my heart, thanks and God bless
Wow. What a testimony!
Thank you so much. I truly appreciate your support. God bless you ❤
What a beautiful testimony of brokeness, forgiveness, and redemption. Thank you Mr. King for sharing your story. We are so blessed to be able to witness this interview,
Thank you for your wonderful comments. I’m glad you witnessed it and maybe if you know of someone who is in a similar situation you can share it with them. Just know that there were a lot of people praying for me and my family. My prayer is for anyone in a similar situation to find the same joy and peace as I was able to find in the mist of such loss. God bless you. ❤
Thank you Pat. You bring reality to being Catholic.
How real is our God.
You’re so welcome and God is so great and I learned it the hard way. ❤
This interview has been a blessing to watch. Yes, being Catholic is the best for a peaceful heart! ❤️✝️🌸🙏📿😊
Oh it does mean the world to me to be able share his life with others. I don’t know how share just how much joy he brought me and others. ❤
That’s a powerfully raw story. Thanks for your honesty.
Thank you. ❤
I have watched so many of these videos on this channel but I never subscribed. This story touched me so deeply I just had to subscribe. Just keep doing what you do. It's truly God's work.
❤wow. I’ve never been accused of people subscribing. Eddie take note I’ve been good for you. lol. I’m kidding, thank you so very much. That was great compliment I’m humbled by it.
Thanks for watching!
This family! I can’t imagine how they endured so much! God bless them so much for all the suffering they went through along with their son.
Thank you for your kind words and support. I wouldn’t wish this on anyone. But one thing I’ve learned is that as long as you is that no matter what one faces God will give you the strength to endure even when you don’t believe it. If your are putting the needs of others above yours it’s amazing what you can endure. I do know that the man I was before my life was turned upside down with the birth of my was not one worthy of anything. That experience made me a far better man today.
@@MrKingpat05You so right, Pat. The suffering of a loved one is an opportunity to become a saint - when we turn to God, even when our prayer is a complaint. My own experience of having to care for my diabetic sister confirms this. Thanks for your testimony.
@@PaulaAlinsangan what a noble thing you’ve done for your sister. My prayers go out to you and may God continue bless you. Thanks for your comments. Share this testimonial with others that might benefit from it. God bless
Very blessed by Lances life through this and the power of the Eucharist.,God bless you 🙏
Thank for your comments. It really means a lot to me my only real regret is that because he was such beautiful soul that I wasn’t able to share him with more people.
❤
Thank You Pat for your sincere , humble testimony.
Brought me to tear in my eyes when i listened.
May Our Lord and Blessed Mother Bless You and Your loved ones.🙏🏻
@@stephenler3850 I greatly appreciate the prayers. Just to let you know many times while sharing I still get a lump in my throat and my eyes tear up and it’s been 20 years. But sharing his life with others has been such a blessing to me thank you.
I'm in tears listening to your story. It really touched my heart.
Thank you so very much. I think of my son daily and when I think (whining) of my pains I recall the sufferings of my son and I get over it. God will get you through everything if you let him. I know that with all my heart.
God bless you 🙏 you are a wonderful dad you remind me of my dad he would do anything for us ❤️
That’s a very nice thing to say. God bless you.

❤yeah Eddie’s gotten so famous he hardly talks to me now. But I can say I knew him when. lol. He’s got a great podcast concept You should buy his book Confessions All. It’s a great story and the inspiration behind Catholic ReCon.
Amen 🙏🏿
Thanks for your prayers.
Pat!!!! Good work buddy
❤thanks my friend. Always appreciated.
Pat I hope you've now said at least one rosary for your wife
That’s a good question. I’ve been saying a regular rosary for ten years since I returned to the Catholic Church. I used to pray regularly for the healing and repair of my marriage and childrrn . I can’t say for certain I said a rosary for her specifically though. Even after the divorce I continue pray for happiness. ❤
Gotta look up Man Cave.
@@ronnieingle1447 that’d be awesome thanks. I did 64 podcasts and I’m still doing the live radio show on Wednesday mornings at 7:20 am mountain time.
🙏❤️
Thanks for your prayers and support.
Was Dr Gundry there at Loma Linda during that time?
@@jeromepopiel388 good question. I don’t know. We were there initially for club foot surgery. It was supposed to be a couple days and ended up being 34 days. That was the only time we were in that hospital. That club foot surgery was not successful because he didn’t stand on his own to put weight on his feet. We didn’t do anymore surgeries until we moved to Idaho in 95.
🙏🙌🕊🌹🥺
I hope I read all those emojis right. You really appreciated my testimony. Thanks. ❤
I can understand this man’s feelings and emotions for his child but there’s one thing that humans have to begin to understand and that is that whom ever produces children and feels that it’s their own property is wrong for that child came from the mercy of God who is the creator and giver of LIFE I really hope that people can begin to understand that.Just seriously think about it and May understanding come to humans 🕊️
I’m a bit perplexed in your comment. Where in my testimony did it come a cross as my child was property? I think I spoke very elaborately that my son was a gift from God a true blessing, that he would be here for a very short time. I never abandoned my son, on the contrary I knew he was to be shared with all. This is why I tell the story of my son’s life and his affect on me. I sure hope you can see that I was just being dutiful to both God and my son for the gift. I hope you can see that although I wasn’t perfect I loved my son perfectly as God would’ve wanted me to. Remember God gave me the gift of my son. ❤
@@MrKingpat05 yeah agree that you have a duty to your children that’s absolutely correct and because of that your children is a gift through God and they need to be taught by their parents of how they must return to God. I hope that I make some sense thank you for your reply my Catholic Brother
@@johnchung6777 absolutely I agree. That’s what parents and especially the father’s responsibility is to their children. Is to bring them up not just in the faith but with the understanding that ultimately their father is God almighty. That there is a much higher honor and respect given to Jesus. We do this by example in the way you treat their mother, all your parents and all those around you. You honor God most when observe all his commands and you’re obedient to God and his church.
@@MrKingpat05 absolutely my catholic brother for Jesus Christ said that the greatest Commandment is to Love your God with all your heart spirit mind and strength and the second commandment is similar to the first and that is to love your neighbor as your self upon these hang all of Gods laws commandments precepts and moral teachings Amen 🙏
Jesus said foxes have holes and birds have nests yet the son of man has no place to rest his head. Thats the price his true followers experience
I don’t believe we were meant to rest completely in our lives unless we are resting in our lord. Idleness is truly a gateway to evil seeking you.
Rosary praying, Jimmy says, you and convert John Dow. (Dow Industrial Average inventor) both lost sons and entered tha Church. It is an "odd or God" çoincidence fer sure.
Well it did take a few 2x4’s to get my attention. I am a slow learner. ❤
Maybe try an edit these down to 45 minutes? Just a thought. Blessings
Blessings to you, too.
@@CatholicReCon pls don't the full hour is lovely
@@konnichibeaucoup4089Agreed
I was just wishing they had more time. But chapter headings for when I’m trying to get the gist. I feel it’s so personal rushing it would eliminate a lot of good stuff.
@@CatholicReCon The long interviews are great. Thank you!
