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 Oma fell and broke the little she has of her hip last Friday. Monday, was her 99th birthday. (My youngest shares the date with her) She is still in the hospital, possibily suffered a heart attack, and has pneumonia that is not clearing up, it is causing a lot of breathing problems. They cannot take her off incubation or operate on her hip until the breathing is better.   Please pray for her, and my mom and aunt who have difficult decisions to make.
Thank you!

Praying for your dear Oma, Mary Chris, hip breakages are awful things for the elderly.

Thank you for your prayers.
My Oma passed away on Saturday morning. She had both her daughters and a number of her grandchildren at her bedside during her last hour. She lived a wonderful life.
The doctors think the heart attack is what caused her to fall. My mom was here visiting me when Oma fell. I am glad that Oma held on long enough for my mom to get to LA and make her peace with her mom.
I'm happy that she will be reunited with her husband, family and friends. She left Germany as a teen and never saw her mother and some brothers and sisters again.
They decided to hold off on the funeral. I'm relieved about that, now we will be able to go.

I'm sorry for your loss, Mary Chris. Praying for your family and for your Oma's soul. It's really kind of beautiful to die right when we are so close to celebrating Resurrection.

Peace,
