Why are so many of our men falling prey to strokes and heart attack these days? Is it because they feel bullet-proof? From ministers to Senior Cops to senior civil servants all are falling prey. If its not stroke then its prostate issues. God help them all and open our eyes to why we are having such an epidemic.
Speedy recovery Mr. Raffoul.
Assertive, NOT Agressive!
Michel I am so sorry to hear that, I will be praying for you. I know you will be fine. God’s healing power wash over you. You have such a good heart and an amazing spirit. You will be fine, you have to be in Jesus name, Amen.
speedy recovery Michel

Heavenly Father in the Name of Jesus, we stand before your throne of Mercy and Grace. We cover Michel with the blood of Jesus from the crown of his head to the sole of his foot. Father he is a nice man with a good heart. Let your healing virtues flow through each vein, marrow, cells in the Name of Jesus. Let all blood clot be melted in the Name of Jesus. Lord heal him and set him free to serve the one and true Heavenly Father which you are. You alone are worthy of praise and we give you all the Glory and Honour for healing Michel in the Name of Jesus. Thank you for healing this man who will in turn praise and glorify and magnify your Holyname. Lord forgive him of any wrong he may have done. Lord you are so forgiving as we are all sinners but your grace and mercy we do not deserve are poured over us. We are trading this sickness, we are trading our sorrows for the joy that only you can give him and his family in the Name of Jesus.

I PRAY that he is returned to us safely
guide the doctors and nurses at the PMH
send St Mihael and the angels to heal him totally
In jesus Name I pray.
AMEN
Yesterday I spoke with Him at the Grocery store .What the hell is causing all those strokes ? Does anybody know ? Is it the crap that we are eating ?You mean the world boasts about how modern and advanced we are and they still don’t know why so many people getting stroke?
But where is all dem stroke dere coming from??? This have to be investigated? Dominica has an abnormally high number of stroke victims for its population. the sad thing is that people are taking these occurrences lightly.
father in Jesus name i bring mr. raffoul to you this day. u r the great physician and so i beleive you 4 healing for him. i pray that if he have not accepted u that he will have a chance to meditate on you and your goodness. u know the life span of a man and if this is the time for his death may he accept u as Lord and saviour if he hasn’t so that he can b with u in eternity. if is ur will that he lives may he also draw closer to you and continue 2 srve u. let ur will b done amen and bring comfort to the family.
sorry to here that hang in there
im very sorry here that hang in there god is good all the time
If everybody is so afraid of the PMH, why then is it still open? and when you folks come on DNO and say things like, “get him to Martinique” who are you communicating that to? I had one visit to the PMH, and that when my Mother was pushing me out. Well, they paying all these indian Doctors to experiment on human in Dominica. Don’t you people have any Rabbits?
My prayers and well wishes be with you my brother, with hope.
Peace
Alex I would be nice to see if you can get your White friends in the overs who were in Da in 2009 to help our boy Michelle in his great hours of need. We feel so very saddened and I do hope that he is flown out especially since the CT SCAN has broken down again. The whole nation must PRAY FOR RAFFOUL. SAVE HIM OH LORD.
get this man out of PMH as soon as possible or get ready for Gentle Rest or Lynhurst to come by. Get him to Martinque, Guadeloupe or Barbados. He is just to nice
