What would you do if your spouse, only 49 years old, was given a terminal diagnosis? 

When doctors told Toni her husband would only live a few years if he didn't get a heart transplant, her world fell apart. Desperate for hope, she turned to prayer—pleading, bold, unwavering prayer. And then, on Christmas Eve in South Texas, something miraculous happened.

In this episode of The Bad Catholic Podcast, Toni shares the incredible story of how God answered her prayers with an undeniable sign: snow in a place where it never snows. Together, we explore the power of prayer, what it means to truly surrender to God’s will, and how moments of crisis can lead to extraordinary faith.

The story comes from A Christmas Miracle, a chapter in Bending Palms, the mother-daughter memoir Toni co-wrote with Trisha. Set to release on Amazon on December 23, 2024, the book shares inspiring stories of faith, resilience, and God’s grace.
