Thank you my dear friends for your prayers. I ask God to thank you for us.

Tony was able to speak to Bernice for 15 minutes yesterday. My sister laughed and cried for happiness. 🙂 So far he had been only able to smile and nod, and clumsily wave his arms. As the spinal cord complete damage is between C6+7, it will be a blessed miracle that I do ask You for, Lord, that Tony will be able to move and use his fingers. But thank You for what function he does retain.

I just found, amongst my own prayers, this prayer my sister Bernice wrote .
I pray it on behalf of both Bernice and Tony

"Oh Jesus, come more deeply into my life,
Constantly strengthen my trust and faith.
Pour out your graces abundantly in me.
I hunger for your great love and peace,
And need you more and more each day.

Wipe away the tears of frustration,
Help me not to be too disappointed
When things don’t go as they should.
Shield me from the force of storms,
Don’t let me be so shaken by them.

Help me to hide my pain from others,
And to be strength to others I meet.
Show me how to pray more earnestly.
Teach me silent humble ways of speaking.
Let your teachings show in my actions.

May my life be a prayer for you?
Let your light shine out from me.
Thank you for all your help already.
Thank you for the peace you are,
And for the many joys you give to me."

That is a beautiful prayer! Thanks for sharing the update with us, praise God for Tony’s partial recovery. Please, Lord, if Tony can completely heal, we will be so grateful.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

Praying each day.

Lord Jesus, Who went about doing good and healing all,
we ask You to bless Your friends who are sick.
Give them the strength in body,
courage in spirit, and patience in pain.
Let them recover their health, so that,
restored to the Christian community,
they may joyfully praise Your Name,
for You live and reign forever and ever.
Amen.

Watch, O Lord, with those who wake, or watch, or weep tonight,
and give Your angels and saints charge over those who sleep.

Tend Your sick ones, O Lord Christ.
Rest Your weary ones.
Bless Your dying ones.
Soothe Your suffering ones.
Pity Your afflicted ones.
Shield Your joyous ones, and all for Your love’s sake.
Amen.

O Blessed Archangel Gabriel, we beseech thee,
do thou intercede for us at the throne of divine Mercy
in our present necessities, that as thou didst announce to Mary
the mystery of the Incarnation, so through thy prayers
and patronage in heaven we may obtain the benefits of the same,
and sing the praise of God forever in the land of the living.
Amen.

The family send their profound thanks to each of you for your prayers.

I have been feeling unaccountably weary and I don’t know if it is in response to Tony’s accident and its consequences,
but we are deeply moved by Tony’s spirit.
His injuries are worse than I first posted.
He is what is called a C6-7 quadriplegic.
Yet though his speech is still limited (and his ability of speech may be damaged, but not possible to be sure until the trache is removed, that man of faith said “I wouldn’t be dead for quids!” How many of us would say that so soon after losing the ability to use most of the body…and he loves the outdoors, camping and cycling…but he has a smile for everyone. He accepted what has happened. Knew immediately that he was severely paralyzed.

We are awed by his faith and Bernice’s faith, and their realism. Both are important in such a situation.

Lord we thank You for all the little daily blessings,
and we ask that Your loving gifts for Bernice and Tony will flow and be all the blessing You desire.

And Lord we pray for anyone in Tony’s situation who does not have the spirit and faith that Tony and Bernice have, and who are not surrounded by loving family.
Please give them love blessing, and strength.
 
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.
