Last night my wife Mary was in severe pain. I took her to the hospital, where we were in the ER all night. She has a large (about 4inches) cyst on or around her left ovary. She will have to have surgery. Also, this is a terrible time for us for her to miss work. Our financial situation is precarious and she earns far more than I do. Please pray for us.

Through the intercession of Sts. Luke, Panteleimon, Cosmas, Damien, Cyrus, John and Gianna Beretta Molla, I offer my prayers for your wife. May you have the resources to afford this trial.

God is our Provider and your provisions are made, be at peace...
0 Christ our God, who at all times and at every hour, both in heaven and on earth, are worshipped and glorified, long;suffering and plenteous in mercy and compassion; who love the just and show mercy to the sinners; who call all men to salvation through the promise of the blessings to come: Do you, the same Lord, receive also our supplications at this present time, and direct our lives according to your commandments. Sanctify our souls; purify our bodies; set our minds right; clear up our thoughts, and deliver us from every sorrow, evil and distress. Surround us with your holy Angels so that being guarded and guided by their presence, we may arrive at the unity of the faith and the knowledge of your ineffable glory; for blessed are you unto the ages of ages. Amen.

Dear Friends:
Thank you for your prayers. Please continue to pray. Mary has surgery on Friday (4 May) at 12:30pm. Her physician is hoping to be able to do a laparoscopic procedure, in which case the recovery time will be shorter. Again, please continue to pray.
Thank you,
Ryan

The surgery went well. The doctor was able to remove the cyst (which was about the size of a softball and was filled with about 10 ounces of fluid) without removing the ovary or the fallopian tube. Also, the initial test indicates that the cyst was benign. However, she is in a great deal of pain. Thank you for your prayers.
