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 rheumatoid arthritis and she has been doing well for years. She started having a major flare-up around Thanksgiving. She has been suffering for MONTHS and it is just getting worse and worse. Now, she is at the point where she can't even get off the couch. She has to lie flat on her back all day. She is getting seriously depressed. Tomorrow she is going to a chiropractor and she has an infusion of her new medicine on Wednesday. Can you please keep her in your prayers? Thanks.

I am praying for her. I am so sorry! Chronic pain is so hard.

My mother has been seeing a chiropractor the past month, and following a diet (including removing sugar and wheat) and has had DRASTIC change in her mobility. she doesn't have RA, just regular arthritis.

But I thought I'd suggest some relief can come from avoiding nightshade family in foods and the gluten and sugar -- all inflammatory causing foods!

Praying with empathy. My MIL has RA.

I hope it helps your mom to know that our prayer warriors are remembering her every day. The Universal Church is real! It is a privilege to pray for your mom. I will especially pray that tomorrow's treatments help to set her on the road to pain relief.

I want to thank you for your prayers. My mom has had two adjustments by the chiropractor and it has taken the edge off. She is still very much in pain, but she can walk now. Her spirits were high today. When I talked to her, she actually sounded like my mom so it was such a blessing for me. Please continue to pray. I really appreciate it!!!
