The marvel of a single movement

When she was 76, my mom suffered a severe stroke that paralyzed her entire right side. Immediately after the stroke, I gave Mom a card with an angel on it that said “miracles.” I taped this card to her wall so she could see it from her hospital bed. My mom was raised Catholic and prayed daily, so I knew she would appreciate it. She believed everyone has a guardian angel who watches over and protects them. Despite her physical losses, my mom thanked God every day she was alive.

Every night before she went to sleep, she prayed and rubbed her right thumb and hand with her left hand, believing it would bring back the circulation and move again. After four months, her thumb moved. I asked her to show me, and she did. She moved her thumb up and down. Being a witness to this miracle gave me a deeper connection to God and the angels.
