Now four years into her relationship with Ray, Norina still battled cancer in the ICU at the Memorial Hermann in Houston, Texas. And despite the struggle, she was never discouraged and trusted God even more.

“I don’t want to hear about statistics,” she said. “I declare myself a miracle from God, and I will be that miracle.”
Norina remained hopeful that she would be healed. Further, she also thanked God that Ray stayed by her side. While this may be the case from Norina’s point of view, doctors told her she only had a short time to live. So, doctors suggested that Norina and Ray get married as soon as possible.
