Words fail

I have no wise words or deep thoughts to share...only numbness.
My dear friend's husband, Blaine Savage, who's name has appeared here before, is no longer in remission. He is only 43.
He writes about it here:
Ben Hur

Their faith and strength have been inspiring throughout this ordeal. They are special people and dear to my heart, as are their children.

Also, another young woman (age 27) I have known since her birth has received the same news as Blaine: "The cancer has returned." Her name is Hillary.

I am asking for prayers for both Blaine and Hillary and their families. And perhaps a miracle...or two...

Lord, Have Mercy

A young mom we have known since she was born, Hillary St. Pierre, has been battling Hodgkins Lymphoma for several years now. She has recently been given some bad news. Please add her to your prayers. She and her family have been through so much.

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.

Amen.

Prayer request

The Savage family could really, really use some prayers right now. We know our God is a God of miracles, and that is what we are asking for. Please consider joining me in storming heaven for Blaine Savage and his family.
