Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Oh, dear, praying now and through the night. Mike's at the Basilica doing the Mass tonight before the March for Life. I'll ask him to light a candle before he leaves.

Our candle is lit, dear Alice, and prayers have been said. We will continue to hold our rosary beads until we hear more.

Thank you for the prayer alert, Helen.

Thank you all so very much.

My mother had a seizure while the children and I were visiting her for her birthday. One minute she was kissing the stuffed animal the children brought her, discussing with them what she would name it, and the next she was shaking and unconscious.

We rushed out of the room to allow the staff to work, and I was told she was unresponsive and being sent to the hospital. I brought my children to my cousin's house, and by the time she and I returned to the hospital together, my mother was conscious again, but in a great deal of pain.

You can imagine how much she needs all these prayers and how grateful I am to you all for your care for our family. Many, many, many thanks.

How frightening. We'll be praying through today. I have a meeting at church tonight, so I'll light a candle.

St. Anne, pray for us!
