How Pope Benedict XVI Cured My Cancer"

19 year old American teenager, Peter Srsich claims he was cured of a chest tumour thanks to Ratzinger, who met the boy at an audience in Rome last year.

Peter was 17 when doctors diagnosed him with a chest tumour after doing an X-Ray. He was being treated at Colorado Children’s Hospital and while doctors tried to do what they could to help him fight the disease, he was also being looked after by the U.S. non-profit  Make-a-Wish Foundation.

Laura Srsich said that when she spoke to Peter about it, the first wish that came to his mind was: 'I'd love to go meet the Pope in Rome.” His wish was relatively easy to grant  and so a year ago, in May, Peter and his mother attended one of Benedict XVI’s General Audiences in St. peter’s Square. They met and spoke to him and the encounter had a powerful effect on Peter. The Pope listened to Peter talk about his trip and his illness and later blessed him.

But according to Peter and his family this wasn’t just any blessing; or at least it was very effective. "Then he blessed me. He put his hand right on my chest where the tumour had been. He didn't know where the tumour was, but he put his hand right there," Peter explained.

A year has gone by and Peter has made a full recovery from cancer, he is in his second year at university and one day hopes to be ordained a priest.
