My friend Jennifer has a son who is 6 …his name is Seth and he is in the hospital…about a year ago he was diagnosed with leukemia and the drs thought he was in remission…but instead he got sick again really fast about a month ago. His lungs are leaking air and his body is swelling up, he is on an oscillating ventilator which gives him 400 tiny breaths a minute. But it may be time to just completely give the lungs a rest. my daughter and I lit a candle for Seth today before mass.

Just thinking about this makes me choke on my tears. 😦

For this wonderful child and his mother, may the Lord be at their sides and carry them through this trial.

A PRAYER
TO SAINT GERARD MAJELLA
FOR A SICK CHILD
St. Gerard, who, like the Saviour,
loved children so tenderly
and by your prayers freed many from disease and even death,
listen to us who are pleading for this sick child.
We thank God for the great gift of this child
and ask Him to restore this child to health
if such be His holy will.
This favour, we beg of you
through your love for all children and mothers.

Amen.
 

Praying for Seth…
PSALM 38*
Prayer of an Afflicted Sinner​

  1. a psalm of David, for remembrance.
  2. Lord punish me no longer in your anger;
    in your wrath do not chastise me!
  3. Your arrows have sunk deep in me;
    your hand has come down upon me.
  4. My flesh is afflicted because of your anger;
    my frame aches because of my sin.
  5. My inequities overwhelm me,
    a burden beyond my strength.
    II.
  1. Foul and festering are my sores,
    because of my folly.
  2. I am stooped and deeply bowed;
    all day I go about mourning.
  3. My loins burn with fever;
    my flesh is afflicted.
  4. I am numb and utterly crushed;
    I wail with aguish of heart.
  5. My Lord, my deepest yearning is before you;
    my groaning is not hidden from you.
  6. My heart shudders, my strength forsakes me;
    the very light of my eyes has failed.
  7. Friends and companions shun my pain;
    my neighbors stand far off.
  8. Those who seek my life lay snares for me;
    they seek my misfortune, they speak of
    ruin;
    they plot treachery all the day.
    III
  1. But I am like the deaf, hearing nothing;
    like the dumb, saying nothing
  2. Like someone who does not hear,
    who has no answer ready.
  3. Lord, I wait for you;
    O Lord, my God, answer me!
  4. For I fear they will gloat,
    exult over me if I stumble.
    IV.
18.I am very near failing;
my pain is with me always.
19. I acknowledge my guilt
and grieve over my sin.
20.But many are my foes without cause,
a multitude of enemies without reason,
21 Repaying me evil for good;
harassing me for persuing good.
22.Forsake me not, O Lord;
my God, be not far from me!
23.Come quickly to help me,
my Lord and salvation!
 
St Perigrine you knew of severe pain of body, mind and soul. Intercede for Seth that his condition improve and he remain cancer free.

reaganjn,

I lift little Seth and his parents in prayer … asking St. Peregrine to intercede on Seth’s behalf that God will bless him with improved health.

Peace be with all,
Kathleen
