and has been given 6 - 12 months to live. And for his dear wife Joan who is so worried and grieving this terrible news.
 
Dear Lord,
Please grant peace, comfort, and strength to both John and Joan during this terrible time in their lives.
We ask this in the name of Jesus.
AMEN
 
May God help John and Joan through the shock and illness. I will keep them in prayer. Trishie

Praying for your intentions:

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

God Bless
In Jesus through Mary

I am praying for John F and his wife. I know firsthand how hard this is. My husband has pancreatic cancer and I find myself so worried and full of fear that at times I just don’t have it in me to do anything but stare at the walls. Please, god, please help John F find treatment and cure. God, you led my own husband to the cyberknife facility after we got a “death date” from a surgeon. I’m praying for amiracle for John F. With your healing touch, take this cancer from his body. Give his wife strength and bring them both peace. Please, God, help them through your mercy.
 
St. Peregrine Laziosi, James Salomone, Giles, Ezekiel Moreno, and Aldegundis, pray for the healing of this person who has cancer.
 
Thank you all. Joan needs strength for this journey. She is still in shock. Having lost my husband to cancer I know how hard this road is. 😦 Joan cares for her very disabled grandson as well, so it makes it very rough on her now that she will have John to care for too.
 
I copied and sent Joan all of your replys. Here is her response.
Thanks, thanks, thanks! Imagine a whole bunch of people praying for him. Solid. It gives me so much strength and I feel less alone. Knowing these people are storming heaven is wonderful…I cry tears of joy.

I’m praying for you and your husband already and will for John and his wife Joan also, through the intercession of our dear Blessed Mother and St. Peregrine.

Remember O most Gracious Virgin Mary that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection or sought your intercession was left unaided, inspired with this confidence, I fly onto thee O Virgin of Virgins, my Mother, to thee I come, sinful and sorrowful, despise not our petitions but in your mercy, hear and answer us, Amen

O great Saint Peregrine, you who bore in your own flesh this cancerous disease, and were favored with the vision of Jesus Christ coming down from his cross to heal your affliction, ask of God and Our Lady, the cure of these men whom we entrust to you. Aided by your intercessions, we praise God and give thanks for His kindness and mercy. Amen.
 
May St. Peregrine intercede in John’s illness. May the God of mercy and compassion, strengthen him and his family in the difficult days ahead.
 
Today’s note from Joan:As I mentioned Nigel the grandson has many disabilities.
It is good to know whatever we suffer it is just taking part in his Passion. Offering this up for conversion of sinners and souls in Purgatory.

John made all of us cry (even if not visibly) by letting me know that he once prayed fervently, "Let me take Nigel’s problems on myself… " Then John wept and said, “This must be how he is answering my prayer.” Since God has always looked after Nigel, through all that horrendous list of things, I pray God will look after John like he looked after Nigel.

Our elder girl, Edeline, who is Nigel’s mum, was so touched about this offering of her Dad’s. We actually viewed John on his trolley getting over the effects of the sedative after his biopsy, and he was EXACTLY like Nigel. Tube into his nose, the blood oxygen sensor clipped to his finger, wires all over to get his other life support readings. I looked at Edeline and said, “Look at Big Nigel!” and we laughed.

In the midst of suffering, God sends gracious moments of intense joy and peace. This is a paradox. But it is also balanced by moments of untold anguish. God bless you all!

What an awesome man that John is, and how wonderful they were able to find some joy in his sufferings. God bless them all.
 
May God bless the time they have together. May the preciousness of life fill them as they live together in this trial. God grant them peace. I pray.
 
Merciful and Almighty God, You alone determine the span of our lives. You are the Creator of life, the Giver of life and the Taker of life. You conceived of John F from all eternity as an irreplaceable part of Your Divine plan. Do not turn Your face from him in this time of trial, O Lord. Rather, incline Your ear to hear the intercession of Christ Jesus, Who sits at Your Right Hand. May the prayers of the faithful be joined with those of the Angels and Saints to form an endless petition for mercy upon John F. Graciously strengthen his wife in faith and trust, that she may know in her heart that we live not for this life, but for the next. Since every cell of our bodies instantly obeys Your mighty Commands, we humbly ask that You decree Heavenly healing within John F’s body; that all illness and affliction be cast out at Your Word! Lord, we know not if we are correct in expecting a miracle of healing, but we petition You, the Source of all Mercy, for healing graces. Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, One God for ever and ever. Amen! Alleluia!
 
Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
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.
