Just lost my mom after a long illness. She united her suffering to Jesus. I was in awe watching her. If you read this comment please pray for Gabriella. 🤍

I have chronic pain and, not related, am about to go into chemo and I've prayed the Rosary every day, all I want is to be closer to the Lord. This is much needed thank you 🙏 I'm not a Catholic yet, the medical issues keep getting in the way... please pray for me and my child to be received into the Church soon!

When i was having a panic attack, I prayed to our Blessed Mother with "Hail Mary" and imagined her sufferings at the foot of the cross in Calvary. The attack did not go into full blown attack.

I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease at the age of 30. It is 16 years later and I wake up in pain every day. I know it won't ever end, but it's somehow purifying, at the same time. I don't always remember to offer it up, in fact, I rarely do. May God give me the grace to offer my sufferings daily.

To spend a day with Fr. Hicks would heal my soul. I pray for someone like him to be my Spiritual Father.

As one who's osteoarthritis which is squeezing my entire spinal cord. Since I can no longer be a 🚁 flight RN, I feel useful and giving by suffering for others. <br>All those who are in pain, whether physical or emotional, you all are in my Rosaries. You're not alone.<br>✝️❣️🕊🌹🇳🇺
