Scans Clear for the First Time

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 asked you to carry my prayer card for my mother, who was battling stage 3 lymphoma. I was so weary. We sent the prayer to your team a few months ago, and the photograph arrived. It was a quiet comfort. Last week, we got the results from her latest scans. They are clear. For the first time in two years, there is no sign of the disease. She is regaining her strength slowly. I cannot explain the peace I felt holding your photo, knowing my words were there. Thank you for this gentle service. With gratitude,
