Man Healed of Terminal Brain Cancer


 
May 25, 1995 presented me with quite a surprise -- and another of life's challenges. Confronted with the evidence of a Grade IV malignant brain tumor my experience of life soon changed. Surgery, radiation, and a shortened chemotherapy regimen left me physically and emotionally exhausted. Against my doctor's wishes, I stopped taking chemotherapy in January 1996. There is no medical "cure" for brain cancer so I set forth seeking a miracle and an opportunity to serve a God that might graciously heal me. Throughout my life I had often wondered about God -- His existence, nature, and purpose for us. Unfortunately, I had never comfortably resolved these questions. This was soon to change.
In February 1996 my wife and I attended our first Christian healing class led by Hal Weeks. Just hearing about such a class affected me profoundly. Very shortly we witnessed the power of God's Spirit in our lives. We began to immerse ourselves in the literature and practice of "hands on healing", intercessory prayer, etc. The manifestations of God's love and power brought great comfort to us. Despite a reoccurrence of the tumor (Grade II) in March 1996, my faith and thankfulness continued to grow as God used me to help others. For one year the recurrent tumor remained. In March 1997, the area in which the tumor was clear -- and remains so to this day. Thankful for the steadfast prayers of many and the power of God's Holy Spirit invoked through the name of Jesus, this testimony is in service to God so that others might seek a personal relationship with His Son Jesus and receive this blessing.

10 Hours To Live

Tennis pro Brian Wills shares his miraculous healing story in 10 Hours to Live -- new from Whitaker House...


...Doctors gave Brian ten hours to live after they discovered a cancerous tumor. On Monday it was the size of a golf ball, on Wednesday, nearly the size of a basketball!. Brian was diagnosed with stage four Burkitt's lymphoma, an incredibly fast-growing, extremely rare, 100% lethal cancer. Brian is diagnosed with Burkitt’s lymphoma cancer: extremely rare, incredibly fast growing, 100% fatal. Doctors were honest and direct...
"Mr Wills, You have 10 hours to live. You should make the necessary preparations for your death."


That was the doctor's report, but Brian Wills and his family decided to go to THE Doctor, for a second opinion. With supernatural faith and the support of his family, Wills battled the disease—both physically and spiritually—and fully recovered. That's right, he fully recovered, not partially, not with a remaining lump that was a little smaller-completely, fully recovered! He is the first and only known survivor of stage four Burkitt's lymphoma. According to the National Institute of Health in Bethesda, Maryland he is the only person to have had a "spontaneous remission" of the disease.

"The single most compelling thing about Brian Wills' story is that Brian is here to tell it.",
said Pastor Drew Lynch of Eastgate Church of the Nations (New Rochelle, New York). "He should not have survived."

This new release from Whitaker House 10 Hours To Live; tells A True Story of Healing and Supernatural Living. Wills shares not only his dramatic personal testimony, but also the specific spiritual steps he and his family took to fight the disease. These steps, Brian believes, were crucial to his recovery, and could be life-changing for anyone seeking God's touch.

"People often hear or read about a miraculous story, but don't know what was going on behind the scenes," Wills says. "Our family had never faced such a difficult test of faith, but the Holy Spirit gave us steps to follow that I want to make available for anyone who needs a miracle."

God's Healing Grace.

I must start this with some demographic information. I am employed by a U.S. company in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. My wife Judy and our daughter Jennifer, accompany me on this assignment. At the beginning of the following witness, one of our sons was living in Dallas, Texas and the other was living in Seal Beach, California; subsequently, to date they are both living in Dallas.
Judy and I and Jennifer, have come to the Catholic faith while living here in Saudi Arabia. I have worked and lived in Saudi Arabia since September of 1992 and Judy and Jennifer since January of 1995.
-------------------------------------------------------------
While on vacation, (in Dallas, Texas) during the summer of 1998, I noticed blood in my urine just as we were getting ready to return to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Upon our return our return, I went to the consulting clinic our company uses for primary medical care. I saw an Urologist and after several tests, it was determined that I probably had some form of bladder cancer. My doctor determined it was necessary to do a cystoscopic examination and if possible, remove any cancer that may be present.
In October, as a result of the exam, cancer was found and most was removed during the exam. Upon discovering that I truly had cancer, I was devastated, while worrying about everything our Lord brought into focus conditions earlier that summer. Where only prayer and total confidence in Him brought Judy, me, and several others through a very tense time. I prayed and laid the entire burden of the cancer at his feet. It was the only way I could function. I gave Him my life and asked that what ever would come of it that it would be for His Glory.
After recovering from the first exam/surgery, one more surgery and 8 weeks of Chemotherapy ensued. As a result, it was resolved that the cancer appeared to be in remission. Everything was invasive and as a result, I developed a bad infection at the surgery sight resulting in considerable bleeding. The infection was a very resistant strain of bacteria so it took several tries to get a good antibiotic agent.
