About The Author
DEDICATION
I would like to dedicate this book to all my family members, medical friends, and church members who now rest in peace. May they all be on the fast track to heaven and be reunited with their families. Also my friends from church who helped in the editing of this book: Danielle Glover, Joan Shortino, Fr. Dennis Hadburg, and Joanne Cobb, thank you is not enough. These members of St. John the Beloved are some of the very best our parish has to offer. I love you all most sincerely.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I would like to thank my husband, Jon, and my children, Eric and Abigail, as well as my extended family siblings: my sister, Barbara; Joe, may he rest in peace; and Paul and their spouses, children, and grandchildren. I would like to thank all my friends in the Cobblestone Quilters Guild and the Duck Ditch Quilters. Better friends cannot be found!
Also, I would like to thank all those anonymous faces of caring, compassionate, and comforting people that prayed for me and sent me cards and loving words toward my eventual recovery.
I am also thankful to my church, St. John the Beloved, and Msgr. Chris Latham, Fr. Dennis Hadburg, and the parishioners of our parish.
I would also like to thank my health-care professionals at Palmetto Family Physicians, Charleston Cancer Center, Hollings Cancer Center, Low Country Orthopedic, Charleston Pain Management Specialists, Medical University of South Carolina, Trident Medical Center, and Summerville Medical Center, most especially Dr. McCoy, Dr. Patricia McCuollough, Dr. Frai Liar (RIP), Dr. Charles Graham, Dr. Schmidt, Dr. Holliday, Dr. Back, and Dr. Morasauck.
If I forgot anyone, I am so sorry to have done so, but at the time I needed you in my life, you were there, and that was a gift enough for me.
Why This Book Was Written
When I first went through the first month or so of my plasmacytoma, I was getting radiation treatments. God came to me on several occasions and asked me to write a book for him based on the power of prayer. How was I going to say no to God? I was more than a believer, I was a person who had benefited from prayer. I told God that I would love to honor him by writing a book about prayer and its relationship in my life.
What Is a Miracle?
A miracle is truly a gift from God that you may or may not be praying for, but you know in your heart and soul that because you do not hesitate to pray, God will be more likely to answer your prayers. So never hesitate to pray. You already know God loves you and has mercy on you, and praying is a form of affirmation that you know your prayers will be answered if you have a strong desire to live a longer life and see things that are bound to happen in the future. God heard my pleas and answered my cries for help from him. I was in trouble health wise and knew prayer was my answer to getting well through God’s intercession. For me, it was my desire to see my daughter get married and have her first child. Something I am overjoyed to say I lived to see.
I also wanted to see my son have a child, but he and his wife ended up adopting a beautiful seven-and-a-half-year-old that we have all come to love dearly and completely. Today, August 16, 2017, this very same sixteen-year-old is having two surgeries, and we are once again praying that God will guide the surgeons and those of their assisting nurses in the surgical ward. As it turns out, he did quite well during the several hours of surgery, and his anesthesia kept him calm and sedated for quite a while, keeping him relaxed. Later, he was hungry as a horse since he had gone for the major part of the day hungry. More about Christian later in this book.
INTRODUCTION
DSC-570.jpgCollege days
I received the Holy Spirit into my life on the day of my confirmation when I was in the eighth grade, and I was very touched that day by the power of the Holy Spirit because I am Catholic and I believe that all you have to do is ask the Holy Spirit to help you and he will. So that is how I demonstrated my faith by living my life and trusting in the Holy Spirit.
When I was seventeen, I was in college and got mononucleosis. It was like I was hit by an elephant. I had zero energy. I stayed in the medical center for almost a week while on campus. I had to gargle with a Chloraseptic solution the doctor made for me himself. It seemed to work somewhat anyway. But I was dragging my feet for weeks after being discharged. Mono is brutal to recuperate from. It takes every bit of energy you can muster to get back to a normal existence. It takes months to get to that point.
When I was thirty, I had horrible pain around my upper-right abdominal area and went for some x-rays of that area. My husband and I had a vacation already planned to go to Hawaii, so we went and awaited the results of the x-rays. Upon our arrival home, we discovered that I needed my gallbladder removed. At the hospital, I found out that the doctor also removed my appendix, which had abscessed and was leaking poison into my body, along with my gallbladder. My doctor who performed my gallbladder surgery wouldn’t bring me a specimen jar with the gallbladder enclosed because she felt it was too gross to look at and would make me feel sick looking at it. Later, I found out that I could have died from the abscessed organ and could
