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.

got this from one of our closest friends (we call them Aisa's second parents here)

Quote:
Please include Leo in your prayers - I took him to the ER last night. On his way home from work, he had some vision problems on the left eye. Praise God that he was able to make it safely home. He is now in a room at Bethesda North (he was in the ER 'til this morning) and is due to have an MRI of his head and neck and a stress test. He had CT scan last night and blood tests. Please pray that all tests will have good results and that there is nothing of concern.


I will update as soon as I hear anything -- in the meantime, please pray for Leo, and his wife Doris... they are beautiful people and have played a huge part in our faith journey (and our children's) as well... Thank you so much.

They kept Leo in the hospital another night for more testing. All tests so far have had positive results -- will find out more today. They were talking about *possibly* a mini-stroke... which may be negative or positive depending on how you look at it.

Thank you so much for your prayers. Will update again soon.
