"Huh? What's this?"
On the 13th of July, I found a blister on the my daughter, Yeji's legs and took her to the hospital for check-up. The doctor told me that she was infected with virus and severer than expected. He opened a medical book and showed me a picture of a little girl. Her whole body was covered with scabs except for two eyes. The doctor said that my daughter would suffer from the same symptoms that that girl in the picture had and there would be no medical treatment.
He gave me a prescription so that her disease would not develop further, but he added that if she scratched her body, that prescription would be useless. That night she scratched her itching body and that blister turned and looked like a burned spot. She could not stand her itching, and my wife and I spent all that night on hindering Yeji from scratching her body.
We eventually had to tie her arms with a cord. Seeing my daughter tied up like that caused me great pains and I wished that I were in her shoes and suffering on her behalf. At that time I was struck by an idea that a child's disease comes from his parents' faults. My wife and I began to repent of our sins. She repented that she had not loved God from her heart and not been active in following the shepherd of life, while I repented that I had not understood my wife and not been at peace with her.
On the 15th of July, we took our daughter to Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee for her to receive his prayer. He said in prayer, "Let all itching symptoms disappear, and be glorified through this family!" With the passing of time, her face became bright and she stopped scratching. But the summer heat caused liquid to ooze from her blisters and scabs to fall off from the sores because of the continual liquids. As a result, she became so swollen that I could hardly dare to look at the swelling.
Many people around us advised us to send her to the hospital and some others told us of folk remedies, but we never relied on worldly methods but committed everything to the almighty God. God was pleased with us because we had no mind to compromise with the world, and healed our daughter in a short time through Rev. Dr. Lee's prayer.
On the 22nd of July, my daughter received his prayer once again. He asked God to drive away all the itchy symptoms from her and heal her as soon as possible. It was not long after he prayed that oozing liquid stopped and scabs were formed and then new skin were formed on the infected areas. On the 4th of August, we found that all the scabs were gone and she was completely healed 3 weeks after her diseases developed.
