Miracle of the Disappearing Lump

A few months after my wife and I got married, she discovered a lump on her breast. She was then pregnant with our first daughter. I remember being very scared. I have friends who have told me stories about sisters and aunts who had been afflicted with breast cancer, and succumbed to it eventually.

I called and prayed to my Lord again. I asked that she be healed. But knowing too that God wants us to aso act towards the resolution of our own struggles, I told my wife that we will have it surgically removed and biopsied as soon as she gives birth. I buckled up and got ready for a rough ride ahead, both phsychologically and financially. Meanwhile our attention got refocused on the anticipation of the arrival of our first baby. We bought baby clothes and all the stuff she will need. We went to the ob-gyne regularly to make sure our first baby is healthy.

Aya was born on the 1st of January, 2001, the first day after the end of the first year of the new milineum; portent of good things to come. As soon as we brought baby Aya home, I told my wife we should get ready to have the lump checked and removed. I remember hoping that it did not grow so big during the intervening months. She examined the lump, and looked at me, and said: Dad, I can't feel the lump anywhere at all.

Yes, the lump disappeared. Some doctors later told us that her body must have cured herself in order to protect the baby, which is quite reasonable scientifically speaking. But I have a Big Boss who takes cares of us, and I say, our God healed her.
