Context of Luke 8:44
42because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. And as he went the crowds thronged him. 43And a woman who had a flux of blood since twelve years, who, having spent all her living on physicians, could not be cured by any one, coming up behind, touched the hem of his garment, and immediately her flux of blood stopped. 45And Jesus said, Who has touched me? But all denying, Peter and those with him said, Master, the crowds close thee in and press upon thee, and sayest thou, Who has touched me? 46And Jesus said, Some one has touched me, for I have known that power has gone out from me.
