My grandfather has not been doing well lately. He has been going through depression for a couple years now after his daughter (my mother) entered into a permanent vegetative state. Seeing your eldest child (and the only one nearby) go through that had a big effect on him. Last year he lost a toe to diabetes.

Now recently he has been doing worse. This summer was tough for him. I was home from school and I could tell it was difficult for him to walk at times, he was a bit depressed, and that his health is in decline.

Before I left home for school this Thanksgiving, he mentioned how he wanted to talk to me since I’m the oldest grandson and he doesn’t think he has much time left. We never did talk and he says we’ll do that when I go down for Christmas break.

When I spoke to my dad yesterday, he said that my grandfather had a hard time walking short distances when they were together. He also said my grandfather was a little swollen.

I’m worried about my grandfather and will start praying the Rosary or Divine Mercy Chaplet daily for him.

Please keep my grandfather, Oscar, in your prayers.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen
 
Mother Mary, I entrust this grandfather to your loving care. Please help him to persevere in faith and in a state of grace, and help him to receive the best medical care.

Hail Mary…

Amen.

Lord Jesus Christ, I pray that You send forth Your Holy Spirit upon Oscar, that being granted Your peace, he will rejoice in You and live a life of faith now and forever. Have mercy on him, O Lord, and on all of us. Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee! Blessed art thou amongst 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.

Saint Dymphna, pray for us!

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy,
our life, our sweetness, and our hope.
To you we cry, poor banished children of Eve,
to you we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
Turn, then, most gracious advocate,
your eyes of mercy toward us,
and after this our exile,
show us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary. Amen.

Good Saint Dymphna, great wonder-worker in every affliction of mind and body, we humbly implore your powerful intercession with Jesus through Mary, the Health of the Sick, in our present need. Saint Dymphna, martyr of purity, patroness of those who suffer with nervous and mental afflictions, beloved child of Jesus and Mary, pray to Jesus and Mary for Oscar and obtain our requests. Amen.
