Dear Fr. Marco and your team,
I sent you my prayer for my surgery. I asked for my Holy Card to be carried for me, John, as I was facing a major heart operation. I was so scared. I received the photograph of my card, and it gave me a real sense of peace.
I had the surgery last month. The doctors said everything went perfectly, better than they had even hoped. My recovery at home has been so much quicker than anyone expected. I was able to get up and walk around the house within days. The pain has been manageable, and my strength is returning every day. I'm just so thankful to be feeling like myself again.
Thank you for carrying my prayer.
Warmly,
