Answered Prayers for Healing and Surgery

My Mother's Heart Surgery Went So Well

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 to tell you what happened after I sent my prayer to you. I had you carry a prayer for my mother, Helen, who was facing a very serious heart surgery. The doctors were concerned about her age and the complexity of the procedure. After I sent the prayer card to your team, we just had to wait and hope. Her surgery was last Tuesday, and the surgeon came out smiling. He said everything went better than they could have hoped for. She is recovering now, and her strength is returning day by day. It is such a relief. Thank you for your quiet, faithful work.
