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.

Please pray for my dad who is lying in intensive care with pneumonia and other issues... From this distance it is difficult to really know the full picture. But it seems he is dying. My father is dying.
I am leaving in the morning to be with my family.
There are cases of recoveries... I pray his is one of those.

In this octave of the Holy Saints and Souls my prayers are especially heartfelt. I thank you all for your kindness and prayers in advance.

On Nov. 12 in the early morning hours my father passed away.

I feel truly privileged to be with him in his last days and praying at the end.
I prayed the Hail Mary during his last breaths and then:

May the angels conduct him into paradise; may the martyrs receive him at his coming, and lead him into the holy city of Jerusalem. May the choir of angels receive him, and with Lazarus, once a beggar, may he have eternal rest.
Amen

Which is such a comfort

Thank you all for your prayers

I'm sorry he passed, but glad for you to have gotten to be there with him. You seem very at peace, which is so beautiful. Praying for the repose of his soul.

I am glad that you were able to be with him in his last moments--what a peaceful time it appears to have been! Prayers for the peaceful repose of his soul, and prayers for all those mourning his passing.
