Please pray for my son who has schizophrenia. He has been off his meds and we’re so worried that he’s relapsing! He doesn’t want most close family around him at present. I’m his mom and since the law states who had signed for him to be admitted to the earlier this year, he has been very upset with me. It has basically ruined our relationship. He has been hospitalized one time and had disappeared for several months before that. I believe he has anosognosia which means he is not in denial, but that he has lack of insight that he has the disease. The dr. had let him off of his meds (once a month injection) since he had been doing so well and since he had been very upset about having to be on them. He had told the dr. that he would go back about two weeks after that last apmt with him, but he didn’t. It’s winter now and he’s slept in his car so many times in the past and I’m worried that he’ll take off again far away. I’m worried that he’ll wind up homeless or hurt,etc. Also, please pray that he’ll let me visit him. He was very upset the last time we talked and he talked about me ‘taking away his freedom’ (since I was the one who signed the papers). He had a history of being into the New Age before he was admitted. It was almost like he was in a cult. About the time that he was brought home (to live with me) after he was released from the hospital, the N. Age person that he was following so strongly had died, but now he’s been talking a lot about visualizing things so they’ll happen. He’s been mentioning things like healing people, etc and has been talking about Napolean Hill a lot. He was so holy before this and now he hates Christianity and thinks it’s evil. The meds really helped him the first time, but with this N. Age involvement, it just makes me wonder if there’s a spiritual component to it too.
 
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.

Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. For this child and his mother:peace, health and reconciliation.

Amen and Amen.
 
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed arth thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen

May God grant your son peace.

Dear Mother Mary, please heal this child’s heart so he may again listen to his mother and trust her to want only what is best for him.
 
Thank you everyone for your prayers. Please continue to pray for my son. I received a text tonight that he doesn’t want me to go to his place anymore since something about my ‘ego’ is too much for his liking or something like that and I know that is New Age talk again!

Also, he said he’s going to be leaving soon and I’m fearful that he’s talking about heading out of state like he kept mentioning before! Please pray that he won’t leave and that he will be safe! I can’t stand the thought of him taking off again to God knows where! Thank you and God bless:)
