Sister Betsy is doing fantastic! After last Friday when Father Cooper heard Confession, gave her Communion, Anointed her, and Absolved her sins, she has taken a turn for the better. She’s still in ICU. But is taking physical therapy. Never heard of such! My sister Patty visited Betsy today. She took a picture of Betsy sitting up on the side of the bed. She said Betsy was sharp in mind, and happy. When asked if she wanted Father Cooper to come back again she said yes! I am
AWED!
***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.

Thank you for the update - wonderful news
God bless
Eternal God , in whom mercy is endless,
and the treasury of compassion inexhastible ,
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
Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
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
