A friend's daughter has been taken ill suddenly and admitted to the ICU. The young woman is sliding in and out of consciousness and, although tests are being conducted, her doctors have not yet been able to diagnose the nature of her illness or the cause of her symptoms, except to be able to rule out drugs or alcohol as factors.

Her Mom lives a considerable distance away and faced some difficulties arranging it, but has now managed to travel there to be at her side.

Prayers that the Unmercenary Physicians, the Sainted Cosmas and Damien, guide her doctors in diagnosing and treating her, that she be restored to health, and that God grant her many years.

May our Lord God have mercy on this young woman!

Please, most holy saints and blessed Mother of God, hear our petitions on behalf of this young woman who is the daughter of our forum brother in Christ, Neil's friend.

Please, heal her and bring her to complete health. Have mercy on her life and on her parents who are suffering just as much at this time...

AMEN.

In Christ,
Alice

Thank you all for your prayers. The young lady has recovered, tho a bit shaken by the experience - the cause of which has eluded the doctors. Her Mom asked that I express her gratitude for all your prayers, which she is certain were the major factor in her daughter's recovery.

Please keep this young woman in your prayers. She had a recurrence of the same symptoms and is again in medical care, but the etiology of her condition continues to elude her doctors.

Thank you ever so much for your prayers on behalf of my daughter. She has indeed recovered, though again the Drs still have no idea of the cause of what happened.

Your prayers have led to her healing, and the strength lent to me during the crisis...and I thank you for being kind and faithful even to strangers :)
