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.

She is having her 9th baby by C-section today, but she will have to have a hysterectomy due to severe complications. They have given her the worst case scenario. I spoke to her last night and her voice was trembling. She's 35 weeks now. The baby's name is Raphael. Their two youngest boys are Michael and a Gabriel.

I heard from her last night. She did not have to have a blood transfusion and there was no hemorraging either, praise God!

The baby is in the NICU because both his lungs were collapsing. She won't be able to see him for a while. Please keep praying for this sweet little baby.

How terrifying, Ruth! I simply can't imagine the angst she must be feeling! I'm praying for her and little Raphael.

St. Raphael, intercede for your little namesake!
