Peace and Stable Scans After Prayers for My Husband's Cancer

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 card for my husband, Robert, who was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer. We were both so scared and tired. I asked your team to carry our plea for strength and healing to St. Peter's. I received the photograph of the card, and I keep it by his bedside. Since then, his treatments have been going as well as can be hoped. The last two scans have been stable, with no new growth. But more than that, we have both felt a deep sense of peace come over us. The fear isn't gone, but it's quieter. We are taking each day as it comes, and I believe those prayers are helping us carry this burden. Thank you for this quiet service. Blessings to you and your team.
