Miracles do happen Angela Read

I was on a cruise ship to Alaska and my beloved 17 year old cat was being looked after by house-sitters. The dreaded call came through in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Tiddles was very, very ill having had 2 strokes which had left her unable to moved and blind with irreparable damage to her retinas.
The vet had her on a drip and we must make a decision the next day, but all things considered, it would be kinder to put her to sleep. Please wait, I asked the vet “Miracles can happen.”
A day later another call for news “We can’t believe it”, said the vet “She’s standing up, eating and purring” but still blind. The next day she was allowed home, and one week later her sight had partially returned!
On my return home 10 days later, I found a happy Tiddles, fitter than when I had left her and with her sight totally restored.

Thank you, Lord, for performing such a wonderful miracle and for answering my prayers from the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
