Sick
Positive Prayers
When my parents and I attended the healing Mass a couple of months ago, we received some small containers of water from Lourdes. The other day when my friend was anointed, I gave him a bottle and encouraged him to start using it. His surgery was yesterday and I waited anxiously to hear how things […]
His Anointing
A couple weeks ago, a friend found out he has an aggressive type of cancer. Though he’s almost 80 years old, he would drive to his condo in the mountains and go skiing all during the winter. He felt great, but had some minor pains that he took to be kidney stones. So, he and […]
Valuable Insight
Today my parents both had a normal follow up doctor’s appointment at the cardiologist. The nurse who did all the paperwork and checking in spent some time with us on a completely unrelated topic. My dad has a yet to be diagnosed condition and the woman told us all about her husband who had a […]
Intimate Anointing
We have been saying prayers to Our Lady of Lourdes for a couple of weeks – call it an extended novena. Today was her feast day. The cathedral in the city had a special Mass which was to include the Anointing of the Sick, so my parents and I went. We saw one of their […]
Successful Surgery
A friend’s son-in-law was having some trouble and they found that he had major heart problems. No one suspected this as he is in otherwise good physical health. He had a quadruple bypass today. We prayed for him and waited for the word. Later in the morning, my friend sent a message saying that the […]
Best News Possible
Today we made another trip to the doctor and received the best news possible for and issue that arose. There is still a concern and decisions to be made, but we are grateful for the good news. I feel our prayers at work. I Found God today in the best news possible.
Made it to Mass
When my mom woke up this morning, she was not feeling very good at all. Her eyes were dry and painful and she could barely open them. She didn’t sleep very well and was very tired. After she took her pills, I put some eye drops in and she laid down with a warm moist […]
Returning Care
This morning, my parents and I were remembering how sick I was as a child. I was diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis when I was only 4 years old. From that time on, my joints stiffened, muscles weakened, and pain increased. I was unable to wash or comb my hair, button a button, or open […]
Parkinson’s New-comer
This morning, my mom and I went to the Parkinson’s Christmas party. We saw that one of the new-comers was a couple that we sit behind in church, so we went over and chatted with them for a while. We see them almost every week, but sometimes the husband who has Parkinson’s does not attend. […]
Amazing Cure
I got together with a couple friends tonight. We laughed a lot and exchanged lots of amazing stories. One is truly unbelievable. My friend has a relative who was diagnosed with cancer. When they started to do surgery, they realized that the cancer was very aggressive and had spread to pretty much every organ in […]
