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.

My mom has vascular dementia. She is declining rapidly. I travel each Wednesday 1 1/2 hours to stay with her overnight. It is really getting hard to stay upbeat. I feel overwhelmed with worrying about her and then staying on track with our normal routine. I have been feeling depressed lately and it shows. It's worse because while I do have siblings who live in the same town as my mom, there is no communication. Anyway.....I could go on and on......so........if you can spare a prayer, I would greatly appreciate it. I will definitely be praying for everyone here.

Oh, Marcie...many prayers for you! May Our Lord sustain you with His grace during this time so that you feel His gentle hand guiding your days even when they seem dark and without order on the outside. I'll pray as well for your mom! What a cross to watch mom suffer in this way.
