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 has a very severe case of Crohn's Disease. She works at the same place I do (Target) and it is a very physically demanding job. It's hard for me and I'm healthy. I have no idea how she does it. But she needs the money.

Monday night she went home sick. She looked so awful. Her complexion is a strange olive green color lately. I don't know if it's from all of the medication she is on or what. She looks so old and gaunt. She is only 29 years old.

I'm very worried. She has three children. Please pray for her and her family. Also, that she can find a job that isn't so taxing. I'm afraid this job will literally kill her. I wish there was more I could do.

Thank you.

Praying for your friend, Vanna- Crohn's is so tough to handle.

The poor girl, she is so young, yet obviously so unwell! I will remember her in prayer!

Poor woman! I will add her to my daily prayers -- may God give her strength and health to raise those children provide a better job situation for her.
