Believers Use Power Of Prayer To Fight Cancer
Published: May 31, 2005
Can prayers lead to someone else’s cure?
Stefanie Spielman, the wife of former Detroit Lion Chris Spielman, is definitely a believer.
So far, Spielman and her foundation at the James Cancer Hospital in Ohio have raised $2.8 million for cancer research.
“I’ve never asked why me, and I think that’s one of the blessings that my faith has allowed me to have,” Spielman said.
Spielman was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 30 and survived that battle. But last July, she learned that the cancer had spread into her lungs.
“When you’re diagnosed a second time, there is no cure,” Spielman said.
Spielman said that her faith is strong, and she draws on the power of prayer.
“God hears my prayers, and I know He answers my prayers. For me, if 100 people are saying those same prayers for me — that’s power,” she said.
A growing number of scientists believe in tapping that power as well.
“Our most incredible scientists are our most incredible mystics,” said Patrice Rancour, a nurse at the Mental Health Clinic. “Einstein was looking for a unified field theory. That’s God. The unified field theory is God.”
Rancour said research proves even bacterial cultures and plant life can be altered by prayer. She believes prayer doesn’t always mean praying for a cure.
