Not cancer...

I returned to the dermatologist last July 17, for him to check the scar on my left nipple.The doctor told me that he might have to do a biopsy of the area. I worried that it might be cancer.Days before that day I prayed and prayed to Jesus, Mama Mary and St Ephraim. I asked Mang Belle to pray to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal that it will not be cancer. And I recited the rosary.

Every time I would pray, tears would go down my eyes,begging for Divine mercy. The thought of having cancer scared me. I havent seen my daughter for 9 years. And I didn't want to bother loved ones.

A few days before my schedule with the dermatologist, I suddenly had sore throat which would not go away! I know that if it is untreated, it might affect my heart. 

The Saturday before my appointment my friend from the Embassy and I went to the St. Ephraim Monastery to implore of help of the saint who has done miraculous cures. That was my second visit since the time I had the scar on my left nipple.

When the dermatologist examined me, he said it was getting better. And I dont have to put the medicine twice a day, just once. I heaved a sigh of relief. Thank God! Thank you Jesus, Mama Mary, St. Ephraim and all saints. At least, I believe it is not cancer. The doctor though still wanted that he does the biopsy to find out what it is.But, he hastened to add, it is not urgent. 

So we agreed that I will return first week of September. By that time the dress of Mama Mary at home would have been changed. 

And by the way, the sore throat was viral, thank God! No need for medicines as it will be cured in a few days.Now, three days after my visit to the doctor, the sore throat is gone....

Thank you Lord. Thank you Mama Mary....
