The Misfit Heroes Podcast

Do you believe in miracles? If you’ve been looking for some sign of life out in the world, then this episode is for you. Dr. Craig Thayer is the author of the new book SAVED: One Trauma Surgeon's True Accounts of the Miracles in His Life. Craig Thayer’s destiny was mapped before he was even born. Saved is the story of a man who learned to see the sum of his parts and follow them like stepping stones throughout a miraculous life. Being put up for adoption at birth and finding his family at nine months was just the start of his unorthodox journey. Over the years, the adversity kept finding him… Craig battled a reading disorder that went undiagnosed until he was fifty-five years old. Despite that and numerous other challenges, the calling in his heart to become a surgeon grew louder and louder. It didn’t quiet when he suffered a twisted intestine, witnessed his adopted mother’s alcohol problem, grieved her death when he was just eighteen, healed from a skull fracture in college, agonized over his adopted father’s fight for his life, and struggled to find his self-esteem. The miracles that touched his life were his saving grace and shined a light on his purpose. The miracle of his apartment catching fire and the items left intact reflected the undeniable presence of one of his guardian spirits. The miracles on his mission trips to Haiti and Honduras taught him more about Heaven on Earth than anything he had ever experienced. The miracle of finding his natural family snapped a missing puzzle piece into place—fulfilling a lifelong longing. Even the lists of pranks he pulled in college reminded him of the miracles of the bonds of laughter. Craig’s intent in sharing his story is to give you hope, inspiration, a sense of belonging, and empathy and show you how similar a surgeon’s life is to yours. We are all more alike than we know.
