I AM the Witness

The Mercy of the Law

 

In October 1991 I had a gynecological exam, including extensive sonogram X rays of my pelvic area. The doctor told me that I had benign fibroids. Other than that, the results were entirely normal. In April of this year, I had another pelvic exam. The gynecologist told me that everything checked out normal but that she could feel something unusual on my ovaries. When I questioned her on this, she said that since I just had a pelvic X ray in October, she was at peace that there were no abnormalities in my reproductive organs.

I was just about to accept her statement when an inner voice said:  “You need to go for another pelvic X ray.” Accustomed to receiving the occasional strong and clear message from somewhere within me, I answered the doctor with firmness:  “I should go for another sonogram to make sure it is nothing to worry about.”

She looked at me, first surprised at my strong statement and then relieved. “I agree,” she said, “I would feel better too.”  The first part of my miracle story is that I was given the grace to receive and hear this message.

The sonogram revealed that I had a growth on each ovary. One was 6 cm x 3 cm and the other one only a little smaller. The radiologist showed me the pictures and told me that he would fax the results to my doctor in the morning. He looked very serious and indicated that there was a possibility that the tumors were malignant.

By noon the next day, an associate of my doctor who was looking after her patients in her absence, phoned and scheduled me to see her the same day. She told me that I needed surgery immediately. Since we knew from my previous check-up that these tumors grew to this size in just a few months, it could be assumed that they were not benign.

The gynecologist explained that cancer of the ovaries is a very aggressive cancer and, unless it is detected in its earliest stages, the survival rate is slim. In stage one it can be overcome by a total hysterectomy. In the later stages it is fatal 80 to 90 percent of the time. She told me there was a 50 percent chance that I had cancer and that I might have to have a complete hysterectomy.

I felt an immediate rapport with this doctor. During the preoperative planning, she assured me that if I were her sister, she would not advise me differently. The operation was scheduled for one week hence. As I did not have the same confidence in my regular gynecologist, I felt that God had guided all these events so that they would unfold at the precise moment when everything would be in place, including the right surgeon.

Upon hearing of the gravity of my situation, my husband and I were very concerned. My first reaction was fear of having cancer and the possibility of death either from the disease or during surgery (which the doctor had pointed out was a possibility). I could actually sense the death entity around me.

I knew I had to talk to Mother and ask her for a call of intercession. When I phoned her and told her my problems, her compassion and love made me feel secure and safe. Mother proceeded to make powerful fiats on my behalf. Instantly, I felt my entire body chemistry changing. I knew that healing was happening in my reproductive organs right while she made the call.

Mother continued her call, commanding the tumors to stop growing that very instant. She prayed for hope to my ovaries, hope to the uterus, hope to my entire body. After I hung up the phone, I was in a state of total peace. I knew with a certainty that the tumors would not grow anymore and that immense healing had taken place. I was filled with hope, love and gratitude.

A week later when I awoke in the recovery room, my doctor told me the good news that I did not have cancer. She had removed my right ovary, which had been destroyed by endometriosis, and a very large fibroid from my uterus. The left ovary had a normal ovulation-cycle cyst and no signs of a tumor could be detected.

My hospital stay lasted four days. Every time I woke up during the night, I saw the image of the monstrance from the altar at King Arthur’s Court at the foot of my bed. It radiated brilliant light, covering my bed. I have a very strong belief in the power of the monstrance. As is recounted in the story of Saint Clare, the Saracens were driven back when she held up the monstrance. I knew that Mother had placed the monstrance at the foot of my bed as a protection and that she was with me all the time.

Later Mother told me that El Morya had stated that my situation was karmic and that if I had not been transmuting my karma at an accelerated pace, I would have passed from the screen of life. (I have been in the Teachings twelve years and on staff five years.)

It is now three months after my surgery and I feel healthier and stronger than I have in many years. I am witnessing to the power and authority of Mother to intercede on behalf of her chelas and her commitment to assist them to fulfill their divine plan.  I am grateful to Mother and Lanello for numerous instances of personal intercession and healing and especially for teaching me how to balance karma through the gift of the violet flame and service to the Brotherhood.

I know that there is no better or more important friend on the Path than our most beloved Mother. My gratitude and love to her always.

P.S. I urge all women everywhere, regardless of age and health, to have regular medical pelvic exams every six months. As I can attest, sickness and karma can come upon one quickly and without warning.
