So I'm passing GMing to a player and now I'm not sure if i should make a healer to fill the spot or make a new one i want to go battle healer focusing on damage but still able to heal for enough to keep a group alive any ideas?
What is the party (build types), level, and your preference?

Do what ever u feel best. If ur going pure heals though i highly suggest a Cleric (healing domain) 6/ Sorcerer (Shadow Bloodline)(False Priest) 4/ Mystic Theurge 10. U will have 30ft darkvision, 8th level divine spells, 7th level arcane spells and the ability to use ur DF for a decent amount of ur arcane spells instead of materials. Both classes have a great amount of spell cast per day and u can cannibalize ur sorcerer spells for more healing. Spells to focus on would be buff spells primarily. I know MT gets no love but that is because those that try to make a MT try to use god and blast spells. If u focus on heals, buffs, and summons then the class is amazing. Ive played 1 all the way from level 1-20 and i found it very fun and incredibly versatile for many situations both in combat and out.
I say go debuffing witch with an occasional healing hex for flavor.
Battle Mystery oracle. First revelation is Skill at Arms to let you use greatsword and full plate, second revelation you can get Warsight to let you roll twice for initiative, and third revelation you can get Combat Healer to let you cast Cure spells as a swift action.
Unlike some mysteries, Battle has tons of great revelations so you'll have trouble picking. You might even want to take Extra Revelation multiple times. And the first mystery spell is Enlarge Person which both means your greatsword does 3d6 and improves your touch range for your (swift action) cure spells.
