Publisher's Synopsis
This is the story of Ann Vaz, a humble wife, widow and mother. Ann, aided and inspired by Saint Padre Pio, the Capuchin mystic, gave birth, in difficulty, to six treasured boys. She is one of God's little superstars whose light already glows across five continents. This story tells of a woman's suffering, faith and trust when unexpectedly stricken with a virulent and inoperable cancer. With only a short time to live she remembered her father's directive ("Look up to the sky when in danger, call on God and He will help you.") This she did in prayer. To the dismay of her children she prayed not for a miracle to save her life but rather that God's Will be done in her. As a pilgrim in Medjugorje, she was told by a charismatic priest that "God is going to touch you today." God did touch her and restored her to full health again in what Ann refers to as "The Father's Embrace." On her return to Canada her doctors were astonished and delighted that they could find no trace of cancer in Ann. It is so to this day, 25 years later.
