  1. Heaven is for Real A Little Boy’s Astounding Story

  2. Timeline of Events • May 19, 1999 – Colton Burpo is born. • February 27, 2003 – Colton complains of stomach pain and has a high fever that is misdiagnosed as stomach flu. • February 28, 2003 – Colton’s fever breaks. His parents rejoice, thinking that Colton is well, when in face this is a sign of the rupturing of his appendix. • March 3, 2003 – Colton is examined by a doctor in Nebraska who dismisses suggestions of appendicitis. • March 5, 2003 – Todd and Sonja check Colton into a different hospital; Dr. Timothy O’Holleran prepares for surgery. Colton undergoes his first surgery, an appendectomy. He has both a ruptured appendix and an abscess.

  3. Timeline of Events (cont’d) • March 13, 2003 – As Colton is getting ready to leave the hospital, blood tests reveal that his white blood cell count has spiked. A CT scan reveals two more abscesses in his abdomen. Colton undergoes a second surgery – a celiotomy – to drain the abscess. During surgery a total of three abscesses are found. • March 17, 2003 – Dr. O’Holleran advises Todd and Sonja that there is nothing more he can do for Colton. He suggests transferring Colton to the Denver Children’s Hospital, but a blizzard stops their travelling. • March 18, 2003 – Colton shows amazing signs of recovery and is soon playing like a normal child. • July 3, 2003 – On a family road trip, Colton tells his first of many accounts of heaven.

  4. Colton’s Description of Jesus • Brown hair and has hair on his face, pretty eyes • Had white clothing with a purple sash on (the colour of kings in the Bible) • Gold thing on his head (motioned in the shape of a circle) like a crown • Jesus has red “markers” on him  where are the markers? In the middle of his palms and at the tops of his two feet (where He was nailed to the cross)

  5. AkianeKramarik • Child prodigy who paints and writes poetry • Began having visions of heaven at the age of four • Her descriptions of heaven sounded like Colton’s • Began painting at the age of six • Painted a portrait entitled “Prince of Peace” • When Colton saw this portrait, he confirmed it was the Jesus who he had seen in heaven
