Dead 13 Times

a night of drinking when, at a Ft. Wayne, Indiana,

stoplight, three men tried to carjack him. During the

assault, Cam was shot three times in the stomach. One

bullet ripped through his aorta, another lodged near his

back, and the third tore through his bowels, spewing

infection throughout his body. Cam's family was informed

that he probably wouldn't survive the night. But he did.

In the days and weeks that followed, both of Cam's legs

would be amputated above the knee. He would endure

thirty-six operations and require resuscitation thirteen

times. His fianc e would break up with him in the

hospital. He would become addicted to drugs to deal with

the pain. And he would face the loss of his career. He

would even contemplate suicide. But God was not done

with Cam Tribolet.

During his remarkable recovery, Cam befriended and

eventually married his physical therapist, Sue, who was

instrumental in helping him to find God and begin living

again. Since then, his disability has not slowed him down.

Cam became an engineer, a father, a downhill skier, and

more.

Born out of tragedy, Cam's life is fuller and more

rewarding than he ever imagined it could be. His story

of redemption, perseverance, and hope is for anyone

who needs to discover that our God is a God of amazing

second chances.
