My Husband Recovering Well After Major Surgery

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 a few weeks ago asking you to carry a prayer for my husband Otto. He was facing a long and complicated surgery on his heart. The doctors were concerned. I sent the prayer card to your team at Holy Cards of St. Peter's, asking for strength for him and for the surgeons. Last week, he had the operation. It went better than anyone had hoped. The surgeon said everything went smoothly. Otto is now home, and while he is very tired, his recovery is going as well as it possibly can. I felt a great sense of peace once I knew my prayer had been placed in St. Peter's, and I know he felt it too. Thank you for this quiet service. Blessings to you.
