Transcript

Intro: Welcome to Latter-day Miracles, where we share true stories of angels and marvels. Get ready to enjoy accounts from everyday people that remind us of divine love, that we're never truly alone, and the power of faith in these latter days. I'm Haley Hatch Freeman. And I'm Misty Smith. Sit back, open your heart and prepare to be inspired.

Haley Freeman: Welcome to Latter-day Miracles. Today we are so excited to bring you Angelia Olson, and the reason I am so excited to bring you her is because she is our neighbor and friend, and I have always wanted to bring the next door neighbor to you as a guest on our podcast because I want you to know that these miracles are for everybody.

They truly are for you and your next door neighbor. And actually, when I was designing the logo for our [00:01:00] podcast, I intentionally wanted to put little houses on for our little neighborhood to show that these miracles are just for every day people and for the our neighbors. And so I have always had Angelia in my heart as I have been choosing guests.

I knew she had a beautiful miracle story and, she was just a person I knew who was meant to be next on our podcast, to share her beautiful miracle story with you today. And so I'm going to turn the time over to Misty to read her introduction and then you get to hear from Angelia.

Misty Smith: Alright. Okay. Angelia was born in Freeport, Illinois and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico by wonderful parents.

She met and married Dallan Olson while attending BYU. Yes, it was one of those BYU romances. They have seven children, 20 grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren with [00:02:00] another on the way. Angelia enjoys family traditions, music, good food, and working on family history. She and her husband currently serve at the Elk Ridge Care Center.

She feels it is important to recognize God in our lives daily. Our posterity needs to know that God loves and knows each one of us individually. Miracles do happen. We're so excited. Angelia, what would you like to talk to us about today?

Angelia Olson: Oh, well, just that miracles do happen, and I did have one that was very significant.

They've happened throughout my whole life. Small little miracles where prayers have been answered and things like that, and you felt that through your life. But this one was pretty significant to me and made me realize that God knew who I was and He knew my children. And so that's what meant a lot to me.

I seven have children. This [00:03:00] is my baby girl. Okay. She was a blessing that came to our home to begin with. I had six children and life was great. I thought I'm done with my family. And then I had four teenagers. I didn't put in for this and I thought, what am I doing wrong?

So I went to the temple and I prayed. I says, Heavenly Father, my husband was bishop and my kids were being naughty and I'm going, what do I do? And my answer was to have a baby.

Haley Freeman: Wow. Wow.

Angelia Olson: And I came home and told my husband this story and my answer, and he goes, can, can you pray about that? I am not nice when I'm sick.

and pregnant. You know what I mean? Yeah. And he think about that a little while, but a few days later, . One of my daughters April came to me and said, mom, I had a dream. And it's so real. Mom. There's a little girl that's [00:04:00] supposed to come to our home. Oh. And so she did. So my youngest at that time was six.

So it had been a six year span.

Misty Smith: Yeah.

Angelia Olson: When we got her here. But she was the calm in my storm. The kids, you know, they were teenagers, got a little angry or upset or something, she would cry. And they would stop.

Haley Freeman: Wow.

Angelia Olson: I didn't know, you know, why this baby would be here, but she was their baby. Do you know what I mean?

She was that, and so. Needless to say, I'll move forward and everything. She was our little diva too, because she was the youngest.

She's the young

ambassador, she dances and performs and she got to travel to Africa with the young ambassador. She got to do all this, and then she got married as a young ambassador, which was unusual, but she was able to do that and her husband was very supportive and letting her do acting and singing and all of that.

Well, needless say they got married, they moved to New York. She did some things in New York, just a travel tour [00:05:00] thing. A lot of things aren't good in New York, Uhhuh, but her husband graduated from NYU and they moved to Atlanta area. They are just very active. Her and her husband were very active and enjoyed life, and they had a little girl named May, and then they had a boy named Hugo.

And he was about 18 months old and my daughter was called to be young women's president and she's here at church and helping with meetings and everything. And we're sitting at home here in Utah and we get a phone call on our phones. It doesn't buzz 'cause they're turned off, but we see call immediately, you know, something's happening with your daughter.

So right after sacrament meeting, I went in the hallway and we called and we found out that, my daughter was rushed to the hospital and that something had burst in her head. And my other daughter that lives there in Atlanta, she had gotten a call from her husband and she turned around. They live about 45 minutes apart, but she turned around to meet at the emergency, uh, InstaCare [00:06:00] on Sunday.

It was a Sunday and that, and so they're at InstaCare and my daughter thrown up at church. It had a pop. Oh, she was very sick and her young woman, thankfully called her husband for her and said, you need to come and get Kim and so they came, he came to get her, and uh, she couldn't even function.

He had to carry her to the car. And she said, just take me home. I have a super bad headache. I felt a pop. And he said, uh, no. Going to InstaCare. At InstaCare. Uh, my daughter meant them there so she could take the two little kids. They had two little kids at the time. And so when they were there my daughter wanted to help Kim clean up from throwing up.

And she asked the nurse for something to clean her up and she says, well, she can get up and go clean herself. And my daughter was really upset. She goes, mom, [00:07:00] she wanted her to get up and she was writhing in pain and so they wouldn't give her anything for pain at that point. And so my daughter helped her sister, April is her name.

April helped my daughter. I was so grateful for her being there. And after they took a test, they immediately knew that it was an aneurysm.

Haley Freeman: Wow.

Angelia Olson: And the nurse was very apologetic and they had to get an ambulance and take her down to the hospital. And then she got some medications that she says, you know, my ride to the hospital mom was wonderful.

Wow. They gave her something that they knew. Yeah. When they got to the hospital and they examined her, they found three aneurysms. One had burst.

Haley Freeman: Oh my gosh.

Angelia Olson: And then another one that was medium sized and then a smaller one on the other side of her brain. And most people, if you think about aneurysms, most of us know somebody that may have passed away an aneurysm burst, and you're gone.

And though a 50%. Least die [00:08:00] immediately. Wow. And then another statistic, over 50%. It's getting better now with new technology, but Yeah.

Haley Freeman: My husband's cousin yeah. Had that same thing and she did pass away. Yeah. So it's very scary.

Angelia Olson: It is. It was very scary. And I'm sitting there going, this is my baby.

This is my what, you know what's going on here? She's been, she's just was. I couldn't believe that it would happen to one of my children. I've been very blessed. I haven't had a lot of medical things or hard things happen with my family, and that's a tender mercy too. But I immediately got a flight.

I left church bally and everything, but I have great friends there. They were ready to just take over. I just hand in my stuff, went and got a flight to Atlanta, Georgia. That's where I needed to go. And that night I walked into the ICU where my daughter was, and that was probably really one of the hardest things to see your child with tubes everywhere and a tube in her mouth.

[00:09:00] All it was, it was really, really hard to see her like that. Within the next. Uh, she didn't like the tube at all, and she fought that, but she had to have that in for a while. When she got it out, she was just so happy but her throat was really raw and that, and she was having a really hard time, but she was happy.

Oh, I forgot to tell you when this was December. This was December 3rd, 2023. Okay.

Misty Smith: That's hard around Christmas time and family time

Angelia Olson: So she's in ICU and I'm, I'm there. And, uh, we had great family support. We had, uh, his family and my family. My daughter was there, my son from Texas.

He drove straight through to come and see his sister and brought her a slushie.

This was a tender mercy because she hadn't been able to eat everything, hurt her throats bad, [00:10:00] and he walked in with that and that's what she needed. Now, this is my son that, um, wouldn't normally be part of the family, you know what I mean? Didn't always do it, but he rushed. And so I said How? Okay. Why he'd come? But he came and he was there, and so he was able to stay with my other daughter and take turns helping his work at a place there so he could do his work, but come and help take care of her.

But anyway, that helped buoy her up to see that her brother came to help her, but he brought just what she needed. A neurosurgeon came in one day and said. How's your daughter doing this? Every day they did two or three tests on her brainwaves because they're worried about another seizure, another, burst or anything like that, and it was still really high.

And she started doing yoga. She was doing puzzles. Her husband brought music and they sang music. I mean, she was [00:11:00] okay. But I was worried sick 'cause here's all the tubes and they beep and they go and that, but Right. She was okay. And um, she could tell I was worried as a mother. And so, uh, one day when I was in there, she woke up and she set up and she goes, mom, I am going to be okay.

And I go, I'm glad. I said, I glad you know, here's all these things. But she says, no, mom, I can feel everyone's prayers. I feel it, mom. I feel these prayers all around me. So prayer does help all the family, all her friends, everybody was praying for her and she felt that, and she says, I'm going to be fine.

About a week in ICU, her kids were able to finally come and see her. She was able to kind of do her hair a little bit. I mean, it was, she had tubes in her, you know what I mean? Everywhere. And, but [00:12:00] she was so happy to see her children and my husband came and that helped me but um, just before Christmas, so it was 19 days in, she came home on the 23rd.

It was wonderful. They just said, wow. Okay, your brainwaves have settled down and you can come home. We were so excited to get her home, yeah, they'd only fixed the one aneurysm. She had two others to be fixed. Oh, so we came home. Now, it was wonderful, but it was hard at the same time when you put families together trying to keep a household together and something stressful and, uh.

It was humbling. But, um, we had, his sisters were fabulous and that, and like I said, my family was great too. I had a sister there. Everybody's helping that. My family, when there's a [00:13:00] crisis, we come in and we clean and we make sure the routine stays. Mm-hmm. I love that. Her family, his family, her husband's family comes in and does a project.

They decided to remodel their bedroom for 'em, finish the laundry floor. That was not done.

Misty Smith: That's sweet.

Angelia Olson: I, you know, they're just that way. They just, yeah. Want to do something and, and forget the routine. Forget the routine. But, uh, with their, one of her daughters in school, in kindergarten, we made sure that she got to school.

So it caused a little bit of contention and stuff there, and that was okay. We were just blessed. Do you know what I mean? Right. She was okay so, um, another thing happened while I was there. I was folding laundry. It was two days before Christmas. Well, it was when she came home the next day. I was folding laundry and that, and it was going to be our 50th wedding anniversary on the [00:14:00] 27th.

Misty Smith: Oh, big number.

Angelia Olson: It was a big number and we had wondered why we had felt to not celebrate it in December and that July, previous July, we had our 50th wedding anniversary then in July, because it's too hard to get kids from Texas. And Georgia and us at Christmas time together. Right. So something in July, and I thought that was really strange for us.

But that we did it. Now we know why we did it. Yeah. 'cause we were in this crisis here with this, but I lost my wedding ring. Oh. I could not find it. And you might say, well, it's just a wedding, you know? But this ring was, is a very simple ring. It's a single solitary diamond, but I've had it for 50 years and I've had it implanted with two other rings around it.

Keep holding it. 'cause I kept poking grandchildren with, but so it has a lot of sentimental reason to me. Right.

Misty Smith: Of course

Angelia Olson: I was scavenging her house and laundry, basket, drawers, everything [00:15:00] to find my ring and I was upset about it because it was to be our anniversary.

And I'm going, what do I do? And then one night it just hit me, Angelia, you are worried about a ring. You've just had this daughter healed. I mean, she's okay. She came home, what are you thinking? You're being very selfish. You know and so I did. I knelt down and prayed and I did it. My father, I said, I am so sorry.

I'm being negative and upset about this ring. I said, you healed my daughter, and that's all I could ask. So the next day, my husband's out with our little grandson. He is 18 months old at that time, and he said, has him in the little swing swinging and there are leaves everywhere in Georgia. If you've ever been in Georgia in December, that's when all their leaves start coming down and they must have 30 trees in their backyard.

And these leaves are just everywhere. And we've been bagging leaves all the few weeks that she was in ICU. [00:16:00] So we bagged the leaves and we got rid of them and we did it all week long. I didn't know when I lost my ring, but he's sitting there swinging our grandson and then he picks up the leaf blower.

'cause there's a huge pile that's gotten right there by the swim set. And he blows it and he finds my ring right under it.

Wow.

He found my ring and he comes walking in and, and I said, would you find that? Yeah. He says, under a pile of leaves. That's incredible. So I knew, the Lord knew, even though there was a lot going on, he knew me.

Even through this wonderful miracle, he still knew me and I, my son-in-law said that was more a miracle than my daughter. And I goes, no, but I said no, and this was, it was just a miracle. So anyway, my daughter continued to heal. We stayed there six weeks. To help out because she had to [00:17:00] rest and take it easy.

Couldn't lift her son and that for a while until everything healed. And then she had a surgery in January to fix another aneurysm. What's cool about this with my daughter is when she went to the hospital, the doctor was the number one of the top surgeons in the country that was there that night on a Sunday night.

Okay. Wow. To do her surgery.

Misty Smith: Wow.

Angelia Olson: And a new technique was in place, just very new in modern science. They did not shave her head to fix her brain. They went up through her groin

Haley Freeman: mm-hmm.

Angelia Olson: And fixed it going up through her groin. Wow.

Haley Freeman: Wow.

Angelia Olson: Modern medicine. It was a miracle. And to have that same, that doctor there, and so that, that was amazing.

I, yes, that was another blessing too, that he was there and that, and then. In March they took care of the third one. Wow. And she did fine with that. What [00:18:00] was hard is we had family issues over. When you have a miracles, sometimes things aren't always wonderful, right. We handle stress their own way.

And my dear son-in-law, he's wonderful person. While this is all happening, he's cutting down trees and he's taking the neighbor's washer with his stuff. They're in a remodel him. And their laundry floor wasn't done right. Had laundry done for a while. So he's trying to finish the laundry room floor deal with the ICU has two little kids and then they added the bedroom to finish.

You know what I mean? There was just a little bit of chaos to put mildly with that and so we clashed because I'm one, let's keep order, let's do this. And he says, I'm just gonna keep busy and do all this. So, right. So, um. At that time, I was told I couldn't come back to their home and help my daughter.

He says, I don't trust you. Oh, I'm gonna mess with this stuff. And that was really hard. [00:19:00]

Misty Smith: Yeah.

Angelia Olson: Yet. I loved him. He's a great guy. But it set me into say, okay, I've always been taught to help and pick up and do stuff. And that's what questioned me if I was worth, which is really strange. 'cause here I have this mirror.

I was so upset to say he is doing this. She had the problem and now he's reacting. She was happy. She was so, felt, so blessed that he was struggling. And so you have to realize when you have a crisis and then you can have a miracle among that, some of them react differently and you have to help each other get through.

Misty Smith: Absolutely.

Angelia Olson: That was something I had to learn to do, and it was good for me to realize that I need to respect other people's place in their own home, but, mm-hmm. Can't come in and take over Mother McCree, and that offended him. And I had to get counseling for being depressed. And I, I didn't think I would ever do that.

I says, I've had a miracle. I [00:20:00] know Heavenly Father, I've had a miracle. Why am I so sad? And it was because my daughter had this miracle and her husband was struggling.

Misty Smith: Yeah. Yeah.

Angelia Olson: I couldn't understand that. So we've had to work through that and now we're fine. We have,

Haley Freeman: oh, good

Angelia Olson: that I've gotten help, I'm fine and that, but I just want people to know sometimes with these wonderful miracles and that you don't realize what each person's going through emotionally.

Right. And hopefully, and I didn't, I learned a lot from that and I've had to learn to be a little, hopefully I'm a little better at their home and more respectful to make him feel comfortable. Do you know what I mean?

Misty Smith: Right. Yeah.

Angelia Olson: But, um, I'm fine to go there and that, but for a while it was a real, it was a real hard thing for all my family to say.

What. What you know. Yeah. And looking at him and I says No, and then to learn to forgive each other and, and move [00:21:00] on and just recognize the miracle because it truly was a miracle. And that, I think just me finding my ring helped me get through that. Right. That okay. He knows me. He knows what I'm going through.

I'm trying my best. You know, but I am a busy body. I'm a mom. I do, you know what I mean? And I'm a busy body. I know that. So it is just kind of what I had to realize that I've had to, um, be more respectful and realize families are raised different ways and do things and learn how to respect that

and so, that's kind of my story. But I just know that the Lord. Is there, and He was with my daughter and He helped me get through it. And He helped my son-in-law learn things too that he needed. For himself. And I didn't realize that that can happen during this miracle and that, but that's a very big part of it.

And through this all [00:22:00] my husband was a rock, of course, you know? Yeah. Of course. I needed him and needed his blessings and that, but yes, we were truly blessed. And the kids, I don't know. The kids were great. They were spoiled rotten, their ward, everything. Every day was Christmas there. Oh yeah.

Every day. What did I get today, grandma? They would have activities.

Haley Freeman: What a good ward.

Angelia Olson: They were spoiled. They were very spoiled. And then, um, my daughter was in charge of the Christmas party for her daughter's room in kindergarten. Okay. She's in ICU. At that time, but she planned, she was still on the phone texting ladies.

Oh my gosh. And then myself and Rob's mom, my daughter's husband's mother, we went up and did the party. But she had it all done here. She, so not everybody in ICU does that usually. Yeah. But I thought that [00:23:00] was amazing that she would do that. But I'm grateful for his family. They are so creative.

They had her doing puzzles, one's an artist and brought something for her to paint. Just kept her mind busy so that she wasn't dwelling on everything she was going through, gave her fun things to do. My other daughter, April always knew what pampering things to bring her and

Misty Smith: yeah,

Angelia Olson: but tree lights and made the room look like Christmas and that.

But I just found that the doctors were amazed too. They would never say anything. Yeah. Except the one doctor says, how is she so happy? I mean, we have other rooms where they're going off and they're having seizures and doing stuff, and my daughter's just doing yoga and doing a puzzle, you know, and I'm going.

So we were truly blessed in that. So.

Misty Smith: I love that. So, oh, it's so good. So I wanted to touch on a couple things, mainly because I've been studying. [00:24:00] Um, a bit on mindfulness and being great in your mind. Grateful. Sorry in your mind. Yeah. Grateful and you brought up a couple things that made me realize, wait a second.

It's not a coincidence that I've been studying this lately, and I dunno, someone that needs to hear this.

Angelia Olson: Right. That's what I thought some people might need to realize this happens even in a

Misty Smith: Yes. Yes. Absolutely. So, um, with that, I, I love that you touched on being grateful. A lot of your stories and a lot of your miracles, you had to take a second.

Mm-hmm. And being grateful to reel it back. Right. And there's actually a study and there's been several studies that have been done on gratefulness, and this one in particular. Stood out to me. It was done on the University of Indiana. And, sorry, this is, this is my nerdy moment. I love science.

Angelia Olson: I love nerdy moments.

Misty Smith: Well, um, so in Indiana they did a study, that had to do with. [00:25:00] Uh, the setting of survival, like the survival mode in trials, just the, the stress and what happens and your body goes in fight, flight, or freeze mode. Yes. And so when that happens the fear center of our brain creates anxiety, negative thinking, tunnel vision.

So unlike your case, or even in your, your son-in-law, correct his case. Mm-hmm. He started focusing on what he could control. So it's just tunnel vision and emotional exhaustion. So that probably the tension all

Angelia Olson: fit in, right?

Misty Smith: Yeah. And so the one thing that this study proved was when. The people, being studied when they became grateful, their prefrontal cortex calmed that part of the brain.

And the reward centers started linking to, dopamine and serotonin, which are the feel good chemicals. Very good.

Angelia Olson: You need those. So

Misty Smith: what [00:26:00] happens? Pretty much what this is saying is it literally quiets the stress response and it turns on, hope, calm and clarity.

And so that's the science behind it all. And then you take a second and then you look at scripture where this gets backed up. 'cause I did pull this up and I love this scripture in Thessalonians 5: 18. The scripture says, in every thing give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

I really love how in the scripture it says in everything, not for everything.

Haley Freeman: Wow.

Misty Smith: And in everything, and even in trials, there's something to be grateful for. And that shifts our spirit. And I truly feel, um, that when you were talking about all your trials and how you took the seconds to be grateful. To come back.[00:27:00]

Science will prove that you put yourself in a position where you could feel the spirit. And then that's when God comes in and Christ is able to work through his atonement, calm situation, speak to you, and help you mold those situations. That is so true. So true. I just absolutely science when I love science.

When science backs up spirituality, yes. And that

Angelia Olson: works together and you say, yes, that's what works. Isn't it incredible? I just love it. What they say nowadays. You, everything's centered on Christ. If you just focus on Christ and everything and go to him about everything and, and that you will find the answers in the peace, and you open those scriptures and that just brings the spirit.

I, I just know every time I could do that, get those answers, and you get that calm and you say, okay, but prayers help too. Yeah. Oh, pray. Pray a lot. Yes. Yes.

Misty Smith: Oh, and Angelia,

Angelia Olson: I pray. I

Misty Smith: don't know if you know my [00:28:00] story at all, but I will back that up. My testimony highly supports the power of prayer and how I also have a testimony and I know and I witnessed it, that I literally heard.

The prayers of my neighbors of ward members, family, friends, um, my very family, my husband. Yeah. And I literally felt how they could, and we have had guests that have mm-hmm. Spoken about. That's

Angelia Olson: what my daughter, she just says, mom, I don't know how to explain it. It is just like something that goes over you and you are comforted.

You know, they care. It's just right there. And that's how she knew she was gonna be well, and that, that's

Misty Smith: incredible. So grateful

Angelia Olson: for that. Just people. Yeah. And we all need that. It's just nice. I know. It helps a community too. Her community was wonderful. She's not in an LDS community either.

Misty Smith: Mm-hmm.

Angelia Olson: But we'd be walking the kids every day and going up and down.

How is [00:29:00] your daughter doing? We're praying for her. We're doing that church group. Prayed for her. Do you know what I mean? It's marvelous to find that all faiths can come together. Right. Absolutely. And pray. And that was very helpful. That really helped. She felt that. So yeah.

I love that. Yeah. Yeah. beautiful story

 What is one final message that you would like our listeners to take away from your experience?

Well, I was thinking about this story. It made me think of times raising my children. How I recognized that he was there certain times, you know like you've got a child that's driving a car coming down the canyon in a snowstorm and you feel like you gotta go pray right at that moment.

And I did that. I went in and prayed. I says, please bless. They're coming down the canyon. It's a snowstorm. And then they walk in. They said, I don't know how I made it, but I was coming. There's a car coming at me. Next thing I knew I was just okay. Yeah, and it was just, you know [00:30:00] that the Lord can prompt you, can help you, He's there for you.

The prayers help. I think my husband and I, since we've been married a long time, we've always made sure we had daily family prayer, and I do have a testimony of that because I think that's protected us numerous times. But my children have come home and said, I don't know how I made it or why this worked, but we have prayer.

We asked for safety. We just basic simple things and you don't realize, um, sometimes you take, you know what I mean? You just do 'em because you're taught to do them, but you don't realize how important they are and then,

Haley Freeman: and how powerful they really are.

Angelia Olson: Yeah. But you need to recognize we were blessed and that helped us that day and, uh, like preparing a lesson or something for church and that I've had experiences where I couldn't find something that I wanted for a lesson.

I'm driving down the road and they said. Go in that store right there, Deseret Book, and I went in there to see if I could find what I needed. The store didn't have any idea, but the lady [00:31:00] behind me heard me talking about it. It says I know exactly where it is and how you can get ahold of them. Right. Wow.

Okay. Yeah. These things happen all the time, but we have to recognize that He's there and He is aware of us, and some of them are truly miracles, but then you know that God's aware of you. And that's what I want people to know. He knows the little tiny things, but then miracles can happen and like President Nelson said, expect them and they're gonna happen. Often, I think we're all being tried right now.

The really good people are the ones going through tests right now and that to show that they are okay even in hard trials right now, and if we stay close to Him and recognize His hand, we'll be okay. He'll get us through. So that's kind what I wanna say.

Misty Smith: Thank you, Angelia. That's

Angelia Olson: what I know.

No, I love it so much.

And the fact that you're here and you're willing to share your story, your neighbor, you're our friend, and we're so grateful that you took time for us.
