Answered Prayers for Healing and Surgery

Our Son's Surgery Went Better Than Hoped

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 a prayer to be carried in St. Peter's for my little boy, Gideon, who was facing a very serious and complex heart surgery. We were so frightened. We asked for the surgeons to have steady hands and for Gideon to be strong. After your team sent the photograph, we felt a quiet peace. We took him in last week. The surgeons said the procedure went smoother than any of their scans had predicted, and his recovery in the hospital has been steady. He is home now, resting, and his color is better than it has been in months. We are just so grateful. Thank you for carrying our worry to that holy place. Yours, Kendra
