Tim Oldham was diagnosed with a CSF (Spinal Cord Fluid Leak) with a 5% chance of survival. This means spinal fluid was leaking from his spinal cord, into his brain cavity, and out his nose. This was the result of an injury and it caused a brain tumor to grow. He was transported to Tucson for care and given a 5% chance of surviving the surgery. Upon hearing this, Tim told the doctor that God had made some promises that hadn't happened yet, so I was going to pray, he could doctor, and we would be fine. During one of Tim's interviews, he argues the doctor didn't believe him, but it was how Tim saw things.
With time having a scarce chance of surviving the surgery, he was told to bring a power of attorney, a living will, and someone to make legal choices for him. Tim was in surgery for almost seven hours. When he woke up, the doctor told him that there were only two things in this world that kept me alive: God and coffee.
Tim Oldham was 1 in 7 million to survive the surgery.
