Answered Prayers for Cancer
Peace Through My Cancer Treatment

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 wanted to write to thank you. A few months ago, I sent a prayer for strength and peace as I began chemotherapy for breast cancer. I asked your team to carry it to St. Peter's. Since then, the treatments have been difficult, but I have felt a quiet strength I didn't have before. The anxiety that was so heavy has lifted. My last scan showed the treatment is working as hoped, and my doctors are pleased. I don't know how to explain it, but carrying my prayer to that holy place felt like letting go of a burden. Thank you for your service.
