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.

Many of you probably visit the Decent Films website, or Jimmy Akin's Blog and "know" Steven Greydanus (aka SDG) and his wife, Suzanne. Suzanne's brother, David (age 41) was just diagnosed with leukemia. The disease was advanced when the doctors found it. He is on a ventilator because the leukemia has caused cancer in his lungs. The chemotherapy he is undergoing is very toxic and he needs dialysis with it. He also has a bacterial blood infection. The prognosis is hopeful IF he can survive the chemo and IF the chemo will kick in and start killing the cancer cells. Over the past few days, it has not been looking good. Please keep David, Suzanne, Steve and their family in your prayers.

Thanks.
Joann
