Interesting that since Jan's diagnosis we come across so many friends and contacts who also have cancer...one encouraged us that prayer has major effects.
A lady friend of Jan's had tumours in her neck, needing a nasty operation, to be followed by radiotherapy. The operation cut through the jaw bone to gain access, and a nerve graft to repair the damage. The surgeon planned for the work to take a whole day, and the lady needless to say was very afraid.
A a member of a local church she gathered a large team of folk praying to support her, probably amounting to something just under 200 folk. She assured the surgeon that she was a Christian, and would rest the matter in prayer. The operation was performed, and a week or so later on removing the bandages the surgeon was amazed by the rapid and good recovery. "It must be those 3500 people you have praying for you!" he exclaimed.
