“‘Out of all my years, this is the greatest miracle that I’ve ever seen because I have no idea how he survived,’” Tebow said the doctor explained. “‘The placenta is not even attached and there’s so many different issues. This is a miracle baby. Here is your baby, Mrs. Tebow.’”

Tebow said if his mother had not trusted God and chose not to give the pregnancy a chance, he would not be alive today.
