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 in March about my husband, who was facing major heart surgery. I carried a prayer for his healing and for the surgeons' hands. I sent it to you, and you carried it in St. Peter's.
His surgery happened in April. The doctors said it was very complex, but everything went as well as it possibly could. He came home after a week in the hospital, which was sooner than they expected. Now, he is getting stronger every day. He walks a little farther each time. He is tired, but he is here.
I know it was the skill of the doctors and nurses, and the prayers of many people. I wanted you to know that since his prayer was carried there, he is recovering well. Thank you for your kindness and for the work your team does.
With gratitude,
