My Sister's Cancer in Remission

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 sent you a prayer for my sister Florentina back in September, when she was facing her third round of chemotherapy. The doctors were concerned about the tumor's resistance. I had your team carry my prayer for her strength and for the treatment to be effective. I received the photograph of the card in St. Peter's, and it gave me a quiet sense of peace to know our plea was there. Last week, we got the news that her latest scans show the tumor has shrunk significantly. Her doctors have said she is now in remission. She is still tired, but she is home and recovering her strength day by day. I wanted to thank you for your service. It was a small gesture during a very dark time that helped me feel connected to something greater than our fear. Yours sincerely,
