Kathie Lee Gifford made a "miracle" recovery after falling down the stairs and shocked a doctor when her X-ray came back completely clear.
Kathie Lee Gifford made a "miracle" recovery after she fractured her pelvis during a fall.
The 70-year-old star was recovering from her recent hip replacement surgery when she took a tumble and "just tripped" down the stairs while rushing to answer the door to a friend but even though the incident landed her in hospital, she has now explained how everything has completely "healed" following an X-ray.
Speaking on 'The Today Show' - which she co-hosed from 2008 until 2019 - she explained: "I just went too fast in stupid shoes and I went tumbling. I was out in my little farm here, I was walking around [with] a walker.
"But I realized that I wasn't in any pain. ... I was in no pain at all. And I was off painkillers, I was off all that stuff!
"The doctor comes in with my X-ray and goes, 'Look at this Kathie. You want to see your X-ray?' And I go, 'That’s my X-ray?’ He goes, ‘Yeah. You're completely healed. You are cured'!
"And he's an incredible man of God, yes, but he doesn't see that very often.
"He said, 'You are healed. It is a miracle. Now you can have one glass of wine if you'd like!'"
Kathie had "moved 300 books" by herself while signing books in Nashville, leaving her body "weakened" before she fell.
She told People magazine: "It's my own fault.
"It didn't take much, because I was weak in that spot. And the next thing you know, I am back in the hospital with a fractured pelvis, the front and the back. That's more painful than anything I went through with the hip. The pelvis is unbelievably painful. But anyway, here I am."
Kathie needed the hip surgery as a result of her active lifestyle, but she has no regrets.
She said: “[I ask myself] would I change that? No, I was doing what God put me on this earth to do. Every year of it, I was doing what He called me to do."
