My Sister's Cancer Has Not Returned

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 last fall asking you to carry a prayer for my sister. She had finished treatment for breast cancer and we were so afraid it would come back. I sent the prayer card with her name to your team. Since then, her scans have been clear. She feels stronger every day and her doctors are hopeful. Thank you for carrying our prayer to St. Peter's. It gave us comfort when we needed it most.
