My Wife's Health Has Turned a Corner

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 if you could carry my prayer for my wife who was battling breast cancer. It had been a long road of treatments and we were both so tired. I sent the prayer card to you because I wanted to feel that our plea was as close to the heart of the Church as it could be.

Since then, things have been different. Her last two scans have been clear, which is news we hadn't heard in over a year. Her energy is slowly returning, and she's able to do little things around the house again. We don't know what the future holds, but this period of stability feels like a gift. We are just taking things one day at a time with more peace in our hearts.

Thank you for your kindness and for the work your team does. It meant a great deal to us to know our prayer was there.

Yours gratefully,
