    Please if you could say a prayer for our 37 yr old son Andy. He has serious mental health issues and what we believe to be Borderline Personality Disorder. He cannot be reasoned with and believes things that aren't true, and it's so bad right now. It's hard to find joy even at Christmas as we are just so upset about the awful things he is saying as he has gone downhill lately. I cannot even repeat them.. I've always been afraid he will snap and do something awful. If you could pray for his soul as he told his Dad yesterday that he doesn't think there's a place in heaven for him...:cry: He is absolutely all alone. Only will see his Dad. So lonely it's killing him. Thank you.

    Saint Dymphna, a great wonder worker in every affliction of mind and body, I humbly implore your powerful intercession with Jesus through Mary, the Health of the Sick. You are filled with love and compassion for the thousands of patients brought to your shrine for centuries, and for those who cannot come to your shrine but invoke you in their own homes or in hospitals. Show the same love and compassion towards me, your faithful client. The many miracles and cures which have been wrought through your intercession give me great confidence that you will help me in my present need: cure Andy of his mental affliction

    I am confident of obtaining my request, if it is for the greater glory of God and the good of my soul. For the sake of Jesus and Mary, whom you loved so earnestly, and for whom you offered your life in martyrdom, grant my prayer.

    Amen.

    I'm so sorry but hang on to Mary. She has rescued my children from very difficult situations more than once. I will pray to her over Christmas for your son. A prayer from a mother to Mary is always heard. May God bless you and your husband with peace and healing for your dear son.

    Thank you all so much. This is tough. But I know God's got this even as I agonize over it.
    May you all have a blessed Christmas and New Year. I always take you all to Mass with me.

    Yes praying and taking all to Adoration with me. I go as often as I can. I have a big bag going in of requests— but first try to adore and praise our dear Lord Jesus. I pray for my family and for my dear son - lost to us— and all family. Than all these requests.
    Once out of the blue I asked Blessed Mother for a baby girl for my daughter who had 3 sons. As the youngest was 8. A girl to love Blessed Mother and her mother my daughter. I did write this before -but we just came from Mass with them all and then daughter’s place for food etc and the baby is 7 months today and so so cute and good.
    That to me was a miracle so let us keep remembering that miracles happen and that Andy and all seeking miracles - that I include - including my son can heal by God’s Healing Grace. Confidence!
