Hey Jim, It must be so hard to NOT be able to do all the things you used to do before!I continue to be grateful for all of your prayers. Last evening, it was beautiful out, and I got the bicycles ready so that my daughter and I could go for a little ride. I need to exercise, as my strength has suffered through all of this. A quick test up and down the driveway and… I fell in gravel and sprained my left wrist. So, first cancer and now a sprained wrist! What’s next, a paper cut?But, seriously, I went to an “Urgent Care” clinic today to have it checked. The RN was from Kerala, India and was Christian. Then, I noticed that the physician’s assistant kept glancing at my Igatius bible. As it turns out, he is Christian, too! What a blessing to share a bit of my story with them! There really is a reason for everything that happens. So, as I cherish your prayers, and ask God to bless each of you, I will be typing more slowly and carefully.
Christ’s peace, my brothers and sisters!
Jim
I have three different inflammatory diseases (one is of the spine) so I am not able to read a book or do many other physical things and it really gets me down sometimes. I try to offer it up but many times I just break down and cry.
You are truly an inspiration the way you just keep on being cheerful and even helping everyone who needs you when you are having so much suffering. I am so happy that you are going to have just once a month treatments soon. Sorry about your wrist. Just one more thing huh
Just wanted to tell you how God put me in the right place at the right time too when I was traveling on a plane. I was praying my rosary and the lady next to me asked me if I could explain to her how to pray it because she had fond memories of her grandmother praying the rosary. I started out just telling her about the mysteries and how when we prayed them were actually meditating on the life of Christ. I thought that she would be bored if I told her everything but she just kept asking me questions and so I got to tell her so much more about our faith. She said that she was going to buy a rosary when she got home. Allehluia!
It was one of those times when you actually get to see the result of planting those seeds.
May God continue to bless you too Jim.P.S. May I ask you to pray for my dear husband Mike as well as my two sons Jeff and Phil that they will come to know Jesus Christ and His Church. I am still praying for them too but I’m pretty sure that your prayers will be more powerful with God.

Remember, O most loving 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,
though burdened by my sins,
I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother.
To you 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.

Hail Mary, poor and humble Woman, Blessed by the Most High! Virgin of hope, dawn of a new era, We join in your song of praise, to celebrate the Lord’s mercy, to proclaim the coming of the Kingdom and the full liberation of humanity.
Hail Mary, lowly handmaid of the Lord, Glorious Mother of Christ! Faithful Virgin, holy dwelling-place of the Word, Teach us to persevere in listening to the Word, and to be docile to the voice of the Spirit, attentive to his promptings in the depths of our conscience and to his manifestations in the events of history.
Hail Mary, Woman of sorrows, Mother of the living! Virgin spouse beneath the Cross, the new Eve, Be our guide along the paths of the world. Teach us to experience and to spread the love of Christ, to stand with you before the innumerable crosses on which your Son is still crucified.
Hail Mary, woman of faith, First of the disciples! Virgin Mother of the Church, help us always to account for the hope that is in us, with trust in human goodness and the Father’s love. Teach us to build up the world beginning from within: in the depths of silence and prayer, in the joy of fraternal love, in the unique fruitfulness of the Cross.
Holy Mary, Mother of believers, Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us.
Amen.
