Excerpts from Letters from Madelyn

January 6, 1994

You will be glad to know that my chest pains have stopped . . .

They got pretty bad right after Quentin had the stroke. I was beginning to wonder if I should go to the doctor, but I didn’t want Quentin to know how much trouble I was having because he worries about the extra load I’m carrying. 

One night I was reading an old Daily Word and I found the affirmation, “God is healing all now.  Thank you, God.”  That really appealed to me.  I started repeating it to myself over and over and my pains stopped.

Day before yesterday I couldn’t stop crying.  The last two months just came to a head.  I’d had some chest pains during the day and a few in the night, but they have gone away again.  It is such a relief to be free from them.  I do indeed “Thank God.”
