INDIANAPOLIS (WTHR) — Two and a half years ago, Eyewitness News anchor Scott Swan nearly died after a terrifying health scare.
After recovering, Swan wrote about his recovery in a Facebook post.
"Emerging from the hospital today after the health scare of my life. Hours after anchoring a newscast, I suffered internal bleeding that caused me to lose 50% of my blood.
Doctors told me if the bleeding continued during the ambulance ride, I would not have survived. A team of talented medical pros stabilized me and set me on the course for treatment with a good prognosis. I spent nearly a week in the hospital and will be recovering and concentrating on regaining my health.
As a Christian, there is only one explanation. Jesus saved me. He's my healer. My hope. My strength."
Swan has been sharing his inspirational story with churches across central Indiana.
The story caught the attention of the Christian Broadcasting Network. A story and interview with Swan aired on "The 700 Club" Friday morning.
