My dad has had really severe memory issues for a while now. It keeps getting worse. I am having a really hard time. My mom helps, but she is taking care of her mom. I can’t stop crying right now and my dad feels really bad.

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless, and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible,
look kindly upon us, and increase your mercy in us,
that in difficult moments, we might not despair nor become despondent,
but with great confidence, submit ourselves to your holy will,
which is love and Mercy itself.
Amen.
 
Prayer for Those With Dementia

Defend the lowly and fatherless;
render justice to the afflicted and needy.
Rescue the lowly and poor;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
JOHN 10:14-15

Loving God, Healer and Comforter,
We pray for those who suffer from the anxiety,
ambiguity, and confusion of Alzheimer’s dis-
ease and other forms of dementia. Look with
mercy upon their distress, confusion, or
isolation.

Shelter them where dignity and peace abound.
Grant them understanding helpers and
the willingness to accept help. In the face of
loss of memory and control, increase their con-
fidence in Your love and strengthen their care-givers.

As the Good Shepherd, tend to the sick, rest
the weary, pity the afflicted, soothe the suffer-
ing, and bless the dying.

We make this supplication through the inter-
cession of Our Lady of Lourdes, in the name
of your Son, Jesus. Amen.

A Prayer for Family Caregivers

Come to me, all you who labor and are bur-
dened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke
upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and
humble of heart; and you will find rest for your-
selves. For my yoke is easy, and my burden
light. (Matthew 11:28-30)

Healer of souls and comforter of the weary,
help to lighten the burden of families who are
caring for their sick loved ones. Accompany
them on their journey and ease their anxiety
and fears. Surround them with the love and
strength of others, so they may experience
the healing presence of the Communion
of Saints. We ask this through the intercession
of Our Lady of Lourdes and in the name of
Jesus. Amen.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Prayer for a Miracle

God of all creation, you who spoke a simple command and brought forth light from
the darkness, I ask you now to send forth your miracle-working power to heal (amazingcatholic’s father). You cleansed the lepers, opened the eyes of the blind and by
speaking a simple command, you empowered the crippled to rise up and walk.
You sent forth your life-giving power to all those in need, including those you raised from
the dead. I ask you to send forth your healing power into amazingcatholic’s father’s body and give him the strength to fight his illness. I ask this through my Lord, Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen
