Dear Mary, Virgin of Guadelupe

Dear Mary, mother of Jesus

I'm now going through yet another dark and lonely valley.

I'm afflicted with dementia, please intercede for me

And for my wife who recently went to her specialist to deal with her carpal-tunnel brought on by a heart attack.

 

I prayed your Rosary desperately three times that day during her surgery

Until one of the orderlies informed me several hours later that the procedure was a success.

I realize that if I didn't pray at all she would have died.

I responded to the ordely's good news

Saying..."hey...I'm a prayer warrior."

I thanked him on behalf of her doctor and surgeon.

 

I'm at home now, stuck at the house

I now pray the rosary several times daily for me and my family

As I cannot venture anywhere on the road

As I am her caregiver

Who sometimes screams obcinities and rants towards back at me

Over the little mistakes I make.

Now she has to get some rest as we are now both retired.

 

Mary please continue to intercede for me

And for my family

Because I still walk through this lonely valley...called life in general.
