 You are in my thoughts and prayers.  May Mary wrap her mantle around you and your family and may Pope John Paul II intercede for you.

 You have been in my prayers since Elizabeth first told us your story.  My father has non-hodgkins lymphoma, and I remember you in my petitions to St. Peregrine.  I will continue to pray for you and offer Masses for you.  May God bless you and our Blessed Mother comfort you.
 
 Love,
 Molly

          I haven't heard yet.  They were going to keep her at the hospital last night.  Travelling is very difficult and very painful for her, so just getting home today will be tough.  I thought I'd call her on Sunday.

 |  I have more prayers for you.  From our Holy Rosary Home Education group, Jeanne sent me this note:
 I asked my husband to forward this on to Dan Czarniecki in Dearborn -
 maybe
 you know him or know of him - he facilitates a very large prayer
 network via
 email.
 God bless,
 Jeanne
 You have 60+ families praying for you, your husband, and children, here in my little corner of MI.
 
 With prayers (many!)

          Good St Joseph, please hold Nicole's husband close to your loving and patient heart.  Interceed for him, give him strength necessary for whatever may come.
