“I have a strong connection to Padre Pio after being confronted with Stage 3 vulvar cancer I met a woman in the waiting room of my first exploratory cat scan. She was so nice and we talked for about 40 minutes or so. When they called me up I realized I never got her name. I turned and said how nice it was having her there with me and wanted to know her name. Her name was Mary, which happened to be my Mimi’s name whom I have had such a strong heavenly connection to. I teared up, gave her a hug and knew my mimi was with me. The next week I received a packet from Padre Pio Foundation from Mary. Since that day I have referred to my dynamic duo, Padre Pio and Mimi!!!! Been cancer free for 4 years”
