I am a medical doctor, so I understand how difficult this is to believe. In 2021, I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. The oncologist in Lagos gave me three to six months. I had watched patients die from this disease. I knew what was coming. My mother, who had always been more devout than me, began a novena to Padre Pio. She sent a relic card to every prayer group she knew. Hundreds of people were praying. I was not particularly hopeful, but I did not stop her. After the novena ended, I went for my scheduled scan. The radiologist called me back three times. He thought the machine was broken. The tumor was gone. Not smaller. Gone. The metastases in my liver were gone. My bloodwork normalized within two weeks. My oncologist wrote in my file: "Spontaneous complete remission of unknown etiology." I know the etiology. I have the scans, the bloodwork, the biopsy results. Before and after. I keep copies in my office now, and when patients lose hope, I show them.
