Immense Peace During Chemo Treatments

This is the sender’s own account, sent to us after their prayer was carried in. It is not a promise that the same will happen for anyone else.
Dear Fr. Marco, I wrote to you asking for prayers as I began my chemotherapy. I was carrying the prayer for strength and peace, not just for myself but for my family who were so worried. Sending that card to your team felt like releasing a heavy burden. Since my prayer was carried in St. Peter's, the anxiety that was consuming me has lifted. The treatments are still difficult, but I have felt an immense sense of calm that I can't explain. It's like I'm being carried through it. My family has noticed the change in me too. Thank you for this quiet service. It has meant more than I can say.
