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 Paula.

Please know that you don't have to act like it's all okay -- we want you here no matter what.

We are grieving with you and praying for you. We will pray you through this even when you can't utter a prayer.

Paula, I am so sad to hear this news. Know that we continue to pray for you and your family despite that fact that you must remain silent. Life can be so unfair, but somehow with God's help, you will find a way!

I'm crying with you, Paula . I'm also praying for a miracle. We are in the middle of God's story....we are crying and waiting....together at the foot of the cross...with the promise of joining the communion of saints in eternal life. I am so, so, so, sorry...so very, very, sorry. Thank you for being you, for sharing, and for praying here...especially in your time of grief. My tears and prayers for you continue.

Love,

Oh Paula. What a cross to bear . Please know that our prayers unite with yours as we storm Heaven for you- regardless of whether we know the details or not. God knows them, and that's all that matters. Words cannot express the sadness I feel for you. Many, many hugs, dear Paula.

Just devastating news Paula, I'm so terribly sad and can hardly imagine the depths of your pain. I will continue to pray, to pray that there can be a miracle as Angie said, lots of love, Anne

Oh, Paula, we are so sorry. We will be adding your situation to a novena we are praying for mothers and their children (to the Sacred Heart), but I'll add a little prayer at the end especially asking for St. Monica's intercession for you and your son.    Just cannot even imagine how your heart must be breaking.

Oh, Paula...

I have no words. Only tears.

I second everything that has been said here...thrice-fold.

I don't have much to offer you during this awful time...except that I will remember you in prayers everyday during this Lenten season.
