Mark's Cancer Treatment Is Working Better Than Expected

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 wanted to write and tell you that my husband Mark's cancer treatment is going well. The doctors have been very encouraged by his response to the new medication. I asked you to carry a prayer for him last month, for strength and for the treatment to be effective. Since then, his energy has improved and his last scans showed the tumor has shrunk significantly. It feels like a weight has been lifted from our family. I am so grateful to you and your team for carrying our hope into that sacred space. Thank you for this kindness. Sincerely,
