My Story:
I have lots to say about food, healing and variety of cancer therapies, but I must declare that deep in my heart God is the ultimate healer. This page is devoted to God to testify of His miraculous healing powder through prayer. I happen to have experience His healing powder....
After all that has been done about my breast cancer and I am so ready to move on to new life, a follow-up CT scan in January 2010 revealed a 4cm tumor (unknown malignancy) on my left ovaries and a 2cm blood cyst on the other ovary that previously was not there. My oncology refer me to gynaecologist for a more regular 'watch', gynae suggested a hysterectomy so that we get rid of the monthly monitoring and worries. My prayer warrior, Lai Kit, who live in Kuala Lumpur don't agree that I should remove any bodily parts that God has given me! So I choose to monitor further with alternate monthly check-ups with ultrasound and CA125 test. Follow-ups were done in Jan, Mar, May where the tumor grew slightly to 4.15cm, but the cancer marker (CA125) increase constantly. On 3rd July, the cancer marker has gone beyond the normal range (43 instead of maximum 35). My heart sank the moment I saw that 'red' highlighted cancer marker, ultrasound revealed that the tumor was still there. The news devastated me more than my first diagnosis, I was not sure if I have anymore strength to go through it all over again. My gynaecologist suggested hysterectomy and biopsy, that sounds like the only choice I have, but she can only schedule the operation 2 weeks later, that added to my agony of waiting, I signed up for it nevertheless. I gone home with my husband, speechless and absolutely depressed, it was Friday. My husband informed our care-group for prayers, I can only curled up in sofa and cried wondering what has gone wrong with my months of eating healthy. Up to this point, I only realized I have been depending on my own strength to fight cancer without putting my priority on God, though prayers never ceased from my church and friends to uphold me. That night, I truly cried out to God and admit that only Him can help me this time round. My husband suggested that we look for another gynaecologist who can operate on me earlier than 2 weeks, we just want to get it done fast. On Monday, we went to Gleneagles Hospital to see if any surgeon can operate earlier on me. I uttered my most heart wrenching prayer with my husband before we headed to the hospital. I briefed the doctor about my past cancer history and he charted my climbing cancer marker and shacked his head. He then signal me to ultrasound bed, after a few minutes of scanning and looking, he said he could not find the tumor! Unbelieving his own eyes or unbelieving my story that I just had my scan 2 days earlier, he sent me to his radiologist department on the same day, I was in the daze but I know my prayer has to do with that, I immediately text messaged my prayer warrior in KL to pray right away. I prayed fervently in the waiting room, then a hymnal song came to my mind.. "to God be the glory" and 'give thank'. I could not figure the logic of 'give thank' but that was the impression I have, I was nervous but hopeful that something is going to happen. I was called in by the radiologist and have another ultrasound scan, the gynaecologist came into the room as well. They spend sometime scanning and declared nothing to be seen! They show me the normal size of my ovary, I asked if they also see the other blood cyst, none! I knew I knew, God has just answered my prayer, I prayed that the tumor was not cancerous, but He mercifully removed them! Me and my husband were speechless again, our logical mind was put to test and I can only at awe what had just happened! Then the gynaecologist suggested that I take a blood test, I did, the result came in 1 hour later, it was NORMAL 24!
No words can described my relief that I am spared from hysterectomy and potential cancer tumor, but most importantly I experienced God answering my prayer!
A few days passed and Lai Kit called me and told me that she heard a song in her mind while praying for me on that Monday, the song was "To God Be the Glory"!
I called the hospital to cancel the surgery.
It was a temptation to verify God's power to heal, my dad suggested that I return to the first hospital to verify the result, I did not, well at least for the next 2 months, I just spent my next 2 months praising God and 'Giving Thanks' to Him until my pre-schedule follow-up with my first hospital (Adventist Hospital) for my liver/ovary scan. No tumors!
Reflection
As time passed, I reflected back on the entire episode, my faith surged to new height, new desires in me to seek the Lord emerged, I dug into the bible and read through all 22 healing that Jesus done, try to get a glimpse of what Jesus would have anything to say to me…
This is what Jesus said…
“Go, it will be done just as you believe it would” (Matthew 8:13)
“Take heart daughter, your faith has healed you” (Matthew 9:22)
“According to your faith, your request is granted” (Matthew 9:29)
“Rise and go, your faith has made you well” (Luke 17:19)
“Don’t be afraid, just believe” (Mark5:36)
“Do you believe in the son of man?” (John 9:35)
I believe God created all food to sustain and to heal the body, and He is gracious to let us enjoy our food too, but greet and excessive indulgence let us astray. We deviated from His created food for His created human, that is where the disease start.
So, only eat His original food and pray, then enjoy!
