My story – your story

Much like September 11^th, 2001, and COVID-19 pandemic, September 11t^h, 2020, changed my life as well as my family’s life. This is the date to which my 24-year-old son was diagnosed with a brain tumor. As a family, we were all upset and desperate because he had to have a high-risk surgery (hemorrhage, paralysis, or death).

It is from September 30th, 2020 (date of the surgery) that our faith has been tested: ⁸  thanks to him (God), my son survived (1^st miracle). The day after the surgery, Brian started using a wheelchair while waiting for recovering the mobility of his left side (2^nd miracle). 15 days later, he had to have a second surgery because a bone in his skull was infected and therefore its extraction was necessary. Unfortunately, Brian was allergic to the antibiotics which were administered for a week. Given the severity of his condition, the neurosurgeon on call made the best decision in my son’s life: he suspended the use of a drug used to prevent seizures associated with epilepsy or convulsions.

To date, a 3^rd miracle in Brian’s life has happened (he is healthy) : ⁹ after having passed a few treatments and having recovered his mobility, the power of prayer has been demonstrated. ¹⁰  God has done his work! His mercy, love and preeminence are present in our lives.

We are convinced that he wanted to transform us by having a personality and resemblance like him to become more human (no more religious). Finally, we strongly believe in God. So, we have found a purpose in our lives. Thanks, my God!
