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 had a biopsy Thursday and just got the results. She has breast cancer. She will have out-patient surgery on Monday morning and radiation for about a week, depending on how much cancer they find. This is a lot to deal with right now.

She has had to deal with a lot these past few months. Please pray for a speedy recovery.

ETA- Radiation will be for 7 weeks, not 7 days as she thought. She lives with us and does not drive. She's hoping to get help from the hospital to take her there and back. Thanks for your beautiful prayers!

She has been through so much Ruth, praying that great graces will flow down on her will enduring so many bitter cups of sorrow and ill health.

I remember, Ruth...she has been through so much. I will pray for her during this confusing and troubling time after her diagnosis...and in the days to come as she undergoes treatment. I'm praying for all of you as you navigate this with her.

May she find peace and sanctuary in the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus to whom I entrust her.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy.
