Heart Healed

My Mother had a very enlarged heart. She went to the hospital and the doctor said she needed a transplant. I talked to the doctor alone and he said that my Mom, due to her age and deteriorated condition, would not be able to get a donor heart; she simply was not an acceptable candidate. He basically told me she would never leave the hospital. There was nothing they could do. I went in and laid hands on her in Jesus name, and prayed for her that she would be healed and live. She had two big problems. First, water retention around her heart was too high. Second, her potassium levels were too low. Within a few hours after I prayed for her, the water retention was way down, and her potassium levels had risen dramatically. She was stronger. This encouraged the doctors and they began looking harder for possible treatments. They came up with an experimental clip that would help her heart even in the enlarged condition. She went to another hospital where they put in the clip. They told Mom that the clip would help keep her from getting any worse but that heart wouldn’t get any worse but she would never get any better. They said she would never be able to go up and down steps, do laundry and work like she used to. They were wrong. Because of God’s healing power her heart has strengthened and improved greatly. She is back to normal, going up and down steps, doing laundry, gardening, etc. Praise God!
