Answered Prayers for Healing and Surgery

Walking Again After Surgery for a Broken Hip

Elara, Bellingham · March 8, 2026

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 you a prayer card for my husband. He fell and broke his hip last autumn, and the surgery was very hard on him. I asked for prayers for his recovery and for strength for us both. When the photograph arrived, we placed it by his bedside. The physical therapy has been long, but he has been determined. Last week, he walked to the mailbox on his own for the first time. I know the road is still there, but this felt like a sunrise. Thank you for carrying our prayer. Yours, Elara
