Too much color and went on and said all of his tattoos have too much color shes know every one. Yes, she would. And jen garner said, oh, bless his heart. Im so happy that its fake, though. Thank you very much. Thank you. Taking you on a tour of israel like youve never seen. Want to see that. Plus the real family that inspired the movie miracles from heaven coming up right after this. Don t let dust and allergies get between you and life s beautiful moments. With flonase allergy relief, they wont. When we breathe in allergens, our bodies react by over producing six key inflammatory substances that cause our symptoms. Most allergy pills only control one substance. Flonase controls six. And six is greater than one. Flonase outperforms the 1p nondrowsy allergy pill. So you can seize those moments,rwherever you find them. Flonase. Its a story that sounds like a hollywood script. A little girl suffers from an incurable illness only to make a miraculous recovery after taking a fall and believing she saw jesus. The story is true and has been turned into a new movie everybody is buzzing everybody. Everybody leaves it sobbing their eyes out called miracles from heaven. Jennifer garner gives a fierce performance as a mom who stops at nothing to fight for her daughters life. The best acting ive ever seen her do. This is not acid reflux. She is not lactose intolerant. You need to calm down. You calm down you find me another doctor, you run more tests im not leaving this hospital until i know whats wrong with my daughter yeah the reallife family inspired the film, christy and kevin beam and daughters annabelle, adelynn and abbie. Hi. So good to see you all. Weve been living with your story for quite a while, but to see it come to fruition, must make you feel awesome. So grateful. I watched the movie last night and when finished i was sobbing my eyes out but when you you were so determined to help out your little girl that you actually, you drove to boston when when doctors wouldnt see you because there was such a long waiting list. No other choice for you. Was there . Well, thats a little bit of a dramatic license. We did have to wait six to nine had some serious miracle take place to get into him to begin with. Dramatic license. Still happened, just not that way. Right. Right. Yeah, so for people who dont know the story, tell us what your little girl was going through. Annabelle was diagnosed with something called pseudo obstruction motility disorder, meaning that her stomach and intestines didnt work. She couldnt process food, and things didnt work their way out. Agonizing. Agonizing. She lived on the sofa in a fetal position with a heating pad on her stomach. That was her life. And doctors kept misdiagnosing, which often happens. You lived in a smaller town and they didnt have that kind of expertise. What were you going through as a dad . So challenging. You would see your daughter, you know, hurting and there was many times we actually would literally put her to bed and kind of say, hopefully tomorrow will be a better day. Yeah. Such an advocate for her to just continue to say, weve got to find something, weve got to have an option, something. The desperation parents know when their child is chronically ill is devastating. A point, annabelle, you were in the hospital. A touching scene. You had gone through so much pain you were just saying to your mom, mom, i want to go home and i want to see jesus. I mean, do you remember that, that time or was it such a painful time for you . Yes. I do remember that time, and i had grown up and i knew about heaven. I knew that in heaven everything is pretty much perfect. So it was like, well, if im here suffering why dont i just assumption that i made. In the movie you basically do go to heaven but jesus tells you, theres still work for to tell us a little about that without giving away the movie. The whole movie. So whenever i went to heaven, i asked jesus if i could stay and he said, no, annabelle, i have plans for you on earth you cannot complete in heaven but you out there will be nothing wrong with you and then he sent a Guardian Angel to light the tree. By that time it was dark. Uhhuh. So he left you with an angel. Wow. You guys have to go see the movie to see the end of it. Pretty special. We dont want to give it away. You are spectacular sisters. I have to say. Such a great family. You want to be a part of your family, thats how cool you are. We are a part of it. Yes, we are. God bless you and happy holy week. Heavy easter to you.
