Dear All,

One of my acquiantances, a senior in high school back in my hometown, who is very good friends with my sister, has been found to have a severe case of bacterial menangitis.

He was rushed to the hospital this morning, and his lungs are filling with fluid, he is bleeding internally, and his kidneys have shut down. They're trying to airlift him to Atlanta ASAP. The doctors have advised everyone to prepare for the worst, saying his chances of survival are slim.

They can't even give him the medicine for the menangitis until his internal bleeding stops, so it's really a race against time.

Pretty much the entire high school checked out of school today to wait at the hospital, my sister included.

Please pray for JUSTIN DOYLE, that he may survive and make a full recovery and that, most importantly, our Lord's holy Will be done.

I'm going back home tomorrow morning after I attend the funeral of one of my fraternity brothers, who sadly commited suicide a couple days ago. Please also pray for him. I don't want to give his name out of respect for the family.

Kyrie eleison!

My prayers for your fraternity brother, your friend, and of course you in this difficult time in your life.

God the Almighty Father, there is nothing you can not do for us. You do these things for us not becasue we are worthy but because you are LOVE and you can. In the name of your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ we ask for miracles for JUSTIN DOYLE and his family, and friends - give the doctors wisdom.

Also, for Teens friend who has passed on Lord, you are mercy! Pour out your mercy on the soul of this young man, forgive his sins, that he might have ever lasting life with you.

Last and not least, for Teen and his sister, meet their needs where they are at Lord, through the prayer of the Most Holy Theotokos, AMEN.

Good news!

Justin's situation has improved over night, and now the doctors believe he will probably live.

One of my best friend's father, who is Justin's primary doctor, told my friend yesterday that if he survives it will be a miracle.

Don't stop praying; the battle isn't won yet!

I attended the Funeral Mass for my frat brother today in the cathedral. It was an absolutely beautiful Mass. RIP Andres.
