After doctors found a fist-size tumor of aggressive cancer cells attacking his esophagus and stomach, Omahan Edward Gatz was sure he was a goner.
Back then, in 1989, most people diagnosed with such advanced esophageal cancer died within a year. Told that he had six months to live, Ganz was resigned to dying.
His wife felt differently. Jeanne Gatz began praying for a miracle to Jeanne Jugan, a French woman who had founded an order of nuns, the Little Sisters of the Poor, in the 1800s.
Little Sisters around the world also were praying for a miracle — a Vatican-recognized miracle that would help win canonization for their founder.
The Gatzes and the nuns got their miracle.
