Diagnosis was confirmed shortly after birth. Zachary was placed on prophylactic antibiotic therapy until he would attain sufficient size and weight for surgery...generally at age 12 months. At 10 months of age, we attended a parish Healing Service, like the one you described. Zachary was the only small child there. After he was anointed by our priest, several member of the congregation asked if they could pray over him.<BR/><BR/>To make a long story, short: Zachary was completely healed of this congenital anomaly. Surgery was the ONLY known treatment. Thanks to the Divine Physician, through the Sacrament of Anointing, my son was healed. No more antibiotics and no surgery needed!<BR/><BR/>To this day, Zachary has been the healthiest of all the children. He is the last to get sick and the first to get well. Isn't God good?Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15442366625332738957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3130102521697018241.post-31430166266890276792007-10-15T19:33:00.000-04:002007-10-15T19:33:00.000-04:00My son, Fritz, had Annointing of the Sick before h...My son, Fritz, had Annointing of the Sick before he went for a biopsy of a "growth" in his jaw a year ago. It's funny to listen to him list the 7 sacraments: baptism, confession, holy eucharist, annointing of the sick...in the order he has experienced them. Most people probably forget that one, but not him.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14591234069872271083noreply@blogger.com
