Book Description
Janine Fisher, a talented primary care physician, is whole-heartedly dedicated to the art of healing. But her life is dramatically changed when she is graced with the power to miraculously heal by touch. Skeptical at first, Janine realizes she in fact has the gift of healing touch. Now she is confronted by the struggle to know when she should use this power and how she can overcome the temptation to use this power for self-promotion. As her story unfolds, Janine is faced with many people who need miraculous healing. But then she is faced with the consequences, some negative, of performing miraculous healings on them. She faces doubt, rejection, abandonment, and the ever-present lure of using her healing power for personal enrichment. It is her attempt to stay honest and genuine in terms of this power that leads her to deploy with other medical personnel to worn-torn Sudan. Here her faithfulness to a genuine mission of natural and supernatural healing is severely tested and she is brought to a life-and-death circumstance that calls for heroic action. The story of Janine Fisher is one of personal struggle, faith and a passionate devotion to healing. It is a dramatic telling of one person’s odyssey to use her special gift of healing lovingly even in the face of significant challenges, hostility and the nagging appeal of self-promotion.

Medical Miracles
Author: Jacalyn Duffin
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 019533650X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Modern culture tends to separate medicine and miracles, but their histories are closely intertwined. The Roman Catholic Church recognizes saints through canonization based on evidence that they worked miracles, as signs of their proximity to God. Physicianhistorian Jacalyn Duffin has examined Vatican sources on 1400 miracles from six continents and spanning four centuries. Overwhelmingly the miracles cited in canonizations between 1588 and 1999 are healings, and the majority entail medical care and physician testimony. These remarkable records contain intimate stories of illness, prayer, and treatment, as told by people who rarely leave traces: peasants and illiterates, men and women, old and young. A woman's breast tumor melts away; a man's wounds knit; a lame girl suddenly walks; a dead baby revives. Suspicious of wishful thinking or na ve enthusiasm, skeptical clergy shaped the inquiries to identify recoveries that remain unexplained by the best doctors of the era. The tales of healing are supplemented with substantial testimony from these physicians. Some elements of the miracles change through time. Duffin shows that doctors increase in number; new technologies are embraced quickly; diagnoses shift with altered capabilities. But other aspects of the miracles are stable. The narratives follow a dramatic structure, shaped by the formal questions asked of each witness and by perennial reactions to illness and healing. In this history, medicine and religion emerge as parallel endeavors aimed at deriving meaningful signs from particular instances of human distress -- signs to explain, alleviate, and console in confrontation with suffering and mortality. A lively, sweeping analysis of a fascinating set of records, this book also poses an exciting methodological challenge to historians: miracle stories are a vital source not only on the thoughts and feelings of ordinary people, but also on medical science and its practitioners.
