Christmas was fast approaching and so was Caprice’s third surgery. I had been home from Calgary less than a week when the telephone rang one morning. I was surprised when the caller identified himself as Rod Campbell, the healer from New Zealand I had heard about at the channeling course. Imagine him coming back to Canada right at this particular time! I made an appointment for the next day.
Off to Calgary we go again! Before going on with this story I want to say that this man was not someone who called himself a healer. He believed it was God working through him. He had built up a reputation in Calgary for being one who could put cancer into remission. So much so, that the doctors at the Calgary Cancer Clinic were giving patients his name, (quietly, of course), when all medical treatments for their disease were exhausted. They did this because so many of them came back to the Clinic and all signs of their cancer had disappeared.
We were met by a very tall, kindly looking, older man who escorted us into a basement room in the house he was staying at. He told us he traveled all over the world doing this. Because he did not charge, he relied on the goodness and kindness of others to provide the necessary funds to do this. He had met the people he was staying with on the plane and when he told them what he did they offered him their house to work out of. This was always the way, he said. Whenever he needed money, a place to stay or an airline ticket, it just appeared, by the Grace of God, from someone. He had a small, glass jar set off to the side if anyone wished to donate for his services, but he made no mention of it.
Caprice was put on a table and he moved his hands over her body without coming into contact with it. It was all very surreal to me and seemed so odd, but I watched intently trying to understand what good this was doing. He said nothing while he was ‘working’ but when he was finished I asked him if he could teach me what he was doing. You know what he said? “You already know how. Just let the love in your heart flow down your arms and through your hands into her.”
In the car driving home Caprice said she didn’t really feel any different, but that night she and I decided to give it a try anyway. What harm could it do, but just in case we said the Lord’s Prayer before beginning. I moved my hands over the painful area as he had done and immediately she said, “mom! The pain is gone!” Neither of us had any idea how this had happened, but we didn’t care. We just kept doing it every time she felt pain during the day as well as on schedule at 8pm every night. (I had read that it was important when practicing any meditation technique to keep on a set daily timetable. I was continuing to meditate at my usual hour of 1pm while Caprice was at school.)
The day of surgery arrived and before checking her into the hospital Roy and I took Caprice for another healing session with Rod. Just covering all the bases! She was relaxed this time, and so were we. Once she was settled in a bed her doctor came in and said to a nurse who was in the room, “these are Caprice’s parents and if they ask you to do something for Caprice do what they say. They know more about what Caprice needs than we do.” Whoa! Now that’s a switch!
Roy and I left her that night and planned to be back in the morning early to sit with her until noon while she waited for surgery. Another pleasant surprise! They had taken her up early at 8am and she was already back and in her room. Whoa! Now that’s a switch! The nurse kept coming in asking her if she was sure she didn’t want something for pain, but she just smiled and said “no thanks.” Once the anesthetic wore off she was asking if she could go home. The nurse was shocked, but said she would get the doctor. He came in, looked at Caprice and said “I am so sorry Caprice.” Whoa! Now that’s a switch!!!! He allowed her to leave the hospital, but only if we stayed in Calgary overnight. So be it! We were out-of-there.
