I have just read this most encouraging news item on th BCNA website. Personally I have prayed for many friends who have had cancer, often with very wonderful results.

When I was diagnosedI July 2007 - my story is on one of Elayne's replies - I was put on prayer lists all over the world because of being a member of the Order of the Eastern Star. At every meeting when the Bible is opened we have a minute silence for the sick and those who have lost loved ones and names are said. Jewish friends in Sydney sent a card and said I was on their prayer list. The best one was my RC friend - I am Uniting Church - started badgering Mary McKillop and saying novenas. In 1997 when I was in Israel I bought her and another friend a rosary made from an olive tree and the nun who sold it to me said I will give you another one which I kept. She was over the moon when Mary was made a saint and she said Mary has kept me breathing. I have never underestimated the power of prayer.
