Another prayer, if you read this, please [wonderful update too!]

Kimberlee's Little Eliza (whose middle name is Faustina) is having an echocardiogram today, at three o'clock, the hour of mercy.

Please pray for her, particularly that she has not developed a heart infection and will not need to be hospitalized.

Words about The Hour of Mercy from St. Faustina's Diary

Update

I am so glad to tell you that we heard from Kimberlee, and all is well! Eliza was brought in for her echo at exactly 3:02 pm, and the test showed no change or any sign of infection. It turns out her original blood draw was not taken properly and was most likely contaminated, causing a false alarm.

Kimberlee and Michael are "ecstatically relieved"!

Prayer of thanksgiving for this news:

"O Jesus, eternal God, I thank You for Your countless graces and blessings. Let every beat of my heart be a new hymn of thanksgiving to You, O God. Let every drop of my blood circulate for You, Lord. My soul is one hymn in adoration of Your mercy. I love you, God, for Yourself alone."

Comments

I will be praying for sweet Eliza and for the entire family. It sounds like they have had a rough few days. I will also ask the other women in my Catholic Mom's group that meets tonight to pray for them.

I'm also praying for precious Eliza and her family. :)

Praying.

Such wonderful news!
