Yes, I have. My sister-in-law was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in Oct. She was in horrible pain, hospitalized with pain meds every two hours (still not killing pain). My brother wanted her to have a nerve block but they couldn’t if she was on the drugs.
Her brother-in-law went to the Padre Pio Shrine and prayed out loud. Took notes to put on wall. That night she slept through the night for the first time since she’d gone in. She got up the next morning and made her bed, walked down to the atrium to read her devotional. She refused drugs because she had no pain.
The doctors came in one by one and could not believe it, said it was ‘magical’ and ‘impossible’ and ‘they couldn’t understand it’. They even took another ct scan to see if the tumor was still there and it was. But she stayed pain-free for 3 days until they did the nerve block . Thankfully, she didn’t have that kind of pain again in her life. She did pass Jan. 29th but the miracle gave her quality of life in her last days. She was able to enjoy her family and grandkids and she made every minute count.
What a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing.
My father in law (now 78 years old and doing pretty well), was diagnosed some 20 years ago with cancer in both of his kidneys. All kinds of tests confirmed it. When the surgeons went in to remove the first kidney, they first did a biopsy, and no cancer was found. Same was found to be true of the other kidney. Doctors had no explanation, but those hundreds of us who prayed for him knew the explanation.
I don’t need miracles (other than the Resurrection) to confirm my faith, but they are wonderful gifts of God that keep us going strong...
And never mind the miracles of life and birth that take place before us every day...
