Sister Hamilton, My daughter has given this information to several people and it has not worked for all of them. I feel certain that the raspberry root was more an aid to faith than a cause of miracles. But several people have reported that it worked for them. brother gibbons I asked her for details. She sent this: I took the raspberry root drops (50 drops a day in OJ) on the first day of period. Stopped when received positive pregnancy test. They are called: Gemmotherapy Raspberry Rubus Idaeus IDH Herbal supplement Dolisos This is not raspberry leaves but raspberry root. You can get this at some health food stores. Or online. Each bottle lasts about 2 months. https://www.amazon.com/Gemmotherapy-Raspberry-Rubus-Idaeus-Boiron/dp/B00LWGDL4I/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1479235653&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=Gemmotherapy+Raspberry+Rubus+Idaeus+IDH

Dear Brother Gibbons: Being diagnosed with a life-threatening illness just on time before things were about to get out of control a few months ago, I have seen the Hand of the Lord in the way I ended up just on time - even within 24 hours of when things would have seriously deteriorated - in the care of the wonderful staff of one of France's best medical centers for this type of affection. Since then, I have seen the Hand of the Lord in the many people around the world who prayed and fasted on my behalf, including family members, friends, colleagues at work, and attendants of several Church Temples. Last, I have seen the Lord's Hand in the beautiful Priesthood Blessings I received, that promised me recovery and ensured me that my mission here was far from being over. This being said, I have been through such a roller-coaster over the last few months, because of the heavy treatments I received, I needed to read your very comforting article this day, that reinforced in me the conviction that I did indeed experience many true miracles with respect of this very severe health challenge. More generally, you have a way of expressing things that always uplifts me and gets me to truly like the man behind the words. For example, I still remember your powerful fishing image of how Satan can trap people in the way you trapped this big fish you were after...such a powerful example for us all, especially our youth! I can sense your beautiful soul and natural kindness and dedication to the gospel of Jesus Christ through your writings, and this makes me want to be a better Latter-Day Saint, who will deserve to live in the company of people such as you in the Eternities.

Thank you for an obviously heartfelt and beautiful article. Well said.

My testimony echoes yours. I do not believe in the resurrection. I do not believe in the grace of God. I do not believe in the love of Jesus. I do not believe in heavenly mercy. No, I do not believe in these things. I depend on them; for without them, I'm not going Home. And God knows, I want to go Home...

Additionally, I might add that coincidences such as you have described here I like to call Tender Mercies! <3

I have always subscribed to the saying "Coincidences are for atheists, but miracles are reserved for the faithful".

Thank you for such a beautiful, inspiring and even hopeful article. I struggled with infertility myself and was unable to have own children. Now I'm the step-mom to some beautiful daughters, one of who is also challenged with getting pregnant. Can you please share (even primate if needed) the source of the Raspberry Root that your daughter took. Thank you & God bless!!
