God will win this fight for you

Today is May 18, and on this day 9 years ago,  Alec and us as a family received a miracle. We were offered tickets to a healing service with Father Diorio, they came from my cousin's mother-in-law, who had them from someone who couldn't make it and had the tickets already. She said she knew someone who needed them. ( the way this all happened , I know God was giving us this chance).When I was asked if we wanted to take Alec, there was no hesitation, of course, we had to. But also we had to think about germs, but we agreed we needed to go. There were 4 tickets and we knew Cassidy wouldn't be able to last through it,( Nicole took care of her) , and although we could've went just us 3, we decided to ask Deacon Tom if he would come with us. This beautiful man, who we met when he baptized Alec ( which was beauitiful) and did not see or talk to again, until he showed up at Children's hospital and just waited and waited to see us , to talk with us and pray with us. He would come over our house and just talk  ,laugh, pray and be silly with Cassidy and Alec, we felt very comfortable with him. He led the way of what faith is. How it is ok to be human, that you don't have to be perfect and proper to be a believer.  He said he would go with us, which we realized later that we  absolutely needed him with us ,  as we were so lost in this setting and he gave us comfort.
  That morning I said to Alec "Today is your day, God will win this fight for you", During the healing service, Father Diorio said these exact words. It was a confirmation of what I knew , I felt God put these words in my heart, I spoke them to Alec and it was my sign  that  today was  Alec's day, the day Alec would start getting better.
(This was Sunday and just 2 days before ,Keith was told that Alec would not make it through the weekend.) It was a long service ,6 or 7 hours), Keith and I took turns holding Alec. I only remember hearing those words spoken, and siging songs, I remember Keith taking Alec to the back of the church to calm him, it felt like forever, I needed Alec back with me. I remember feeling so hot while holding  Alec ( which I would learn at our next healing services was what people felt when they were being healed) And I remember a moment when we were told to lay hands on one another and we all turned around and there was a teenage boy with a large scar across his head, we laid our hands on his head and he and his Mom laid their hands on Alec's head.  This boy chose to be baptized right then so while he was in the back of the church, his Mom told us that her son has a brain tumor,   it was removed, but came back, her eyes filled up and she said she tries not to cry in front of him. I don't know if I said it, but I know she knew Alec also had a brain tumor. I just thought what are the chances of all these people here, that they would sit right behind us.
  As we were walking out a strange women said to me something like, let my baby go and live in heaven, (i have no idea what her exact words were), but I said to her, no,I need him here with me.  Deacon Tom told me that he was so glad that I stood firm in my faith, and belief and told this woman so. I was happy that he said this, as I'm sure people probably thought  I was in denial. It was a long day, we didn't know Deacon Tom was diabetic and he had not eaten this whole day, the sacrifice he made for us, he was  weak. Then we had to stop on the way home because Alec was crying terribly and in pain, we we could not understand-- we just left a healing service that gave us hope and now this. We finally made it home and Nicole or was it Kevin brought Cassidy home. We were exhausted; still I believed in Alec I believed in God and answered prayers. I believed in how much we needed  Alec.

Laura,

Your belief, Keith's belief, Cassidy's belief and Alec's will & belief never faultered. You gave him the strength he needed to fight. And fight he did... like a trooper. He was the bravest little boy I have ever known, and I am so proud to call him my nephew. God gave you him and he you because He knew you belonged together. He knew our angel would flourish in your arms.

I am so proud of all of you.
Love you,
Holly
