Can I ask for prayers for my grandmother, all signs are indicating that she will be 'born into eternal life' today. She is an incredible person of faith.

Although I can't be there (she is over in Perth) I am there in spirit. I am smiling as I picture her surrounded around her bedside by her daughters. Half of them no longer practice but they are there saying the rosary and Divine Mercy chaplet.

Many thanks

UPDATE:

Friends,
My grandmother, Veronica Mary was born into eternal life at approximately 5pm (Perth WA time)17th October.

Many, many thanks for your prayers.

UPDATE 2:

I have just spoken to a family member who shared that my grandmother was offering all her sufferings for the Holy Souls. She said, "I plan on taking a whole crowd with me".   So like her.
