Some probably earlier than others, but whether it took hours or years isn't the point. Similarly, everyone Jesus healed eventually became ill again in some other way; those He raised from the dead eventually died of something whether natural causes or not. Christ performed miracles as a sign of who He is and as a reminder of God's control over life and death; His purpose was not simply to travel around healing for a few years. He ministered to all who would hear Him, and he was not concerned about clout. He had reformed prostitutes, tax collectors, low status blue collar types, etc. following him. These people were untouchables in their society the way troons are in modern Christianity; it is a delicate line because ministering to them without endorsing their vile behavior is an actively dangerous thing in our current age.
