My Son's Anxiety Has Lifted

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 back in July asking you to carry a prayer for my son, Brendan. He had been struggling with terrible anxiety for over a year. It was so hard to watch him suffer. I asked you to ask for peace for his mind and heart. I was so grateful when the picture of the card arrived. It gave me a sense of calm, just knowing the prayer was there. Since then, slowly but surely, Brendan has been getting better. He started talking more, and he told me he feels the anxiety has lifted. He seems like himself again. I don't know how to thank you and your team for this kindness. It meant everything to us.
