Answered Prayers for Cancer

My Sister's Tumors Are Shrinking

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 and your team, I am writing to thank you. I sent a prayer card for my sister, who was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer. We were all so frightened. I asked for strength for her and for the doctors treating her. Since her prayer was carried into St. Peter's, she has started a new treatment. Her last scan showed that the tumors have started to shrink. The doctors are hopeful. I don't know what the future holds, but I am so grateful for this good news and for the peace that came from knowing her prayer was taken to such a holy place. Thank you for this gentle service. Yours, Elara
