"Your just sending me home with medications? Why haven't you started any chemo or radiation plans?"
"Sir, your cancer is in stage four and has advanced too much for chemo to do any good. Your PSA count is 490. A normal PSA count is between 1 and 3. Bruce, I am sorry... but you will need to let your kids know you won't be around for much longer. At this point, you have 6 to 12 months."
At his congregation the following week, my dad shared the incredible stories of the miraculous healing's he had witnessed the past few months. The congregation gathered around Bruce and prayed for his healing. As they did, my dad asked God for a physical manifestation as evidence of Bruce's healing - his back pain left, and they pressed in with more prayer.
He slept like a baby that night, for the first time in a long, long time.
He went back to get retested...
"This is impossible. Bruce, your PSA count dropped from 490 to 8.4!"
"Yes, I knew it! God healed me! My congregation prayed for me and Jesus healed me!"
"Really? Well... I don't have anything to say about that..."
"You cannot deny the results you see. "
Two weeks later, he got retested.
"Sir, your PSA count has dropped again to 2.4. You are officially cancer free. You can inform your kids you will be around for quite a long while."
This last test, when he was officially declared cancer free, took place about three weeks ago. God is so good!
