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.

I'm bumping this thread for Willa. Willa's original post requesting prayers:

Willa wrote:
My mother has been diagnosed with noncutaneous melanoma (ie, not caused by sun exposure) which had metastasized before it was discovered.

She is very accepting of God's will for her, and very patient and trustful. I would just ask for healing for her in body, if that is His Will, and for His blessings and grace on her and healing in soul whatever the outcome.

I found this prayer which I will say for the intentions of those of you who have sick loved ones.

Quote:
Dear Jesus,
Divine Physician and Healer of the Sick,
we turn to You in this time of illness.
O dearest Comforter of the Troubled,
alleviate our worry and sorrow with Your gentle love,
and grant us the grace and strength to accept this burden.
Dear God,
we place our worries in Your hands.
We ask that You restore Your servant to health again.
Above all, grant us the grace to acknowledge Your holy will
and know that whatsoever You do,
You do for the love of us.
Amen.



Please continue to pray for Willa's mom and her intentions, especially at this time. Please include Willa, who is taking care of her mom right now, in your prayers. May Our Lord in His Most Sacred Heart extend His grace and mercy over both of them so that His peace is abundant.

Another quick bump....could you all focus prayers on a particular intention for Willa and her mother? There is a short period of time that needs care coverage for Willa's mom. Willa and her family are working to order the logistics of it all...but please add your prayers that the Holy Spirit will make smooth the way! Thanks!

I know how much Willa values your continued prayers for her intentions!

Friends,
Willa writes to ask for prayers especially now.

Willa wrote:
I think we are getting to Mom's last hours. Would you mind updating 4Real so they can pray for a safe final passage into God's eternal light?

Prayers coming, friend!   

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us now, and at the hour of our death. Amen.
