I haven't even started to dodge. Nobody asked me a question yet.
I think that whilst I would not rule out sudden, unexplained and unpredictable recoveries (which some might say were miraculous if they were so inclined, or merely a nice surprise if not) it is irresponsible to PROMISE such a miracle. Not least because even the most rabid of fundies would not say that God does miracles on demand and if you nudge a family down that line of thinking and the person dies anyway, their is the potential for malignant guilt, that the person died because the prayer was somehow not good enough.
Anything you say chief
. I'll let you decide "What I Am". Pray silence while Brakeman tells me what I Am
