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.

for supporting me through your prayers and emails and letters. This past year has been so very hard. So hard on us and the children. I 've been really trying to work through battling depression, but my trust in God and His wisdom keeps me going. Losing a loved one is so very hard. I've not been as vocal on the board since losing Matthew, but I am still here, praying for you through every heartache and joy you all post. Thank you for being there for me through these hard hard times. My Mass this Sunday for Mother's Day will be offered for all of you here on the board. May you all always trust in God through all things he sends your way. Love, Emily

Oh, Emily, you are so sweet!

We're here for you, too, and will continue to pray for you during this difficult time.

Emily, may God bless you abundantly and continue to carry you through the pain. May Our Mother hold you especially close during this month of May. Thank you for the prayers and the Mother's Day Mass! May God bless your generosity with graces for your family too.

I've been thinking of you often and praying, Emily!

What a year of suffering. When I think on the intense suffering you and so many friends have faced this past year, I am humbled and grateful for your examples of trust and abandonment to God's will.

May Our Lady continue to stand with you, Emily! You remain in my prayers!

I missed this thread. Just seeing this. Praying for you. Depression is so hard when your will wants to react one way and your emotions take another turn uncontrollably. God bless you.

Emily, I think of you and your family often, you are such a source of inspiration to so many and it comforts me to know you are praying for us, because I know your prayers coupled with such suffering is powerful!

Much love to you and your dear family, especially in this beautiful Marian month of May!
