Hello everyone, quick re-cap: my dad was diagnosed two years ago with colon cancer with two liver mets. He did chemo for six months and has remained NED for 1 1/2 years. The odds were against him and the doc gave him 2-3 years. My dad's case is truly a miracle from God.

Thanks to all of you who have prayed for us. Since this all started, I have depended on the Lord and never stopped praying even though we were discouraged many times. I have attended many healing masses and said several novenas, all of which, I believe have helped to heal my dad.

Even though I wasn't the one diagnosed with the cancer, it had a huge impact on me. Sometimes I think the caregivers have a harder time with it than the patient.


Anyway, I believe that all of your prayers have really helped my family, and I thank you so much. I couldn't have gotten through these past two years without you all.

Have a wonderful Easter and God bless!!!
