ACTION ITEM! Mom of 4 with 5th on the way – pancreatic cancer

From a reader:

Sending this to you in the hopes that you can help get the word out about this family. They need a miracle. We are storming heaven in prayer for her.

This family belongs to St. Stanislaus Oratory, Milwaukee, ICKSP.
Faithful Catholic husband and wife. I know them personally.
Michelle is 21 weeks pregnant with their fifth child. Their fourth child was born with Down’s Syndrome.
Michelle, the mom, has aggressive pancreatic cancer. Please see the Go Fund me article link below.

Please, please pray for this faithful Roman Catholic family.
They so desperately need us.
She needs a miracle. She won’t make it without one.
We are praying through Our Lady of Good Success, and through the intercession of Mother Marianna Torres.

Thank you, Father, for any and all prayers and help you can give to them.

And Michelle is the parish photographer for St. Stanislaus. She is throughout this video about the restoration of the church. You’ve visited here not that long ago.
You can see her starting at the 2:44 mark.

    Hail and blessed be the hour and moment
    In which the Son of God was born
    Of the most pure Virgin Mary, at midnight,
    in Bethlehem, in the piercing cold.
    In that hour vouchsafe, I beseech Thee, O my God,
    to hear our prayer and grant our desires,
    through the merits of Our Saviour Jesus Christ,
    and of His blessed Mother. Amen. †

    Praying now and adding Mary, Undoer of Knots, who gave me an answer to prayer this week. It’s a devotion Pope Francis has publicized. Please Mother Mary and St. Joseph hear the cries of this precious family.

    Prayers from a fellow oratorian. More info on Our Lady of Good Success can be found on Pro Multis Media’s website.

    I also recommend their Rosary DVD as it helped teach my little ones the prayers of the rosary in Latin.

  11. Eugene says:

    made a donation to this great family in need and will be starting the recommended Novena

  12. Allan S. says:

    This is a terrible disease, striking without early warning in most cases. It has a 96% mortality rate. For reasons not yet revealed to me I survived it, albeit after chemo and six surgeries and repeated hospitalizations from 2008 onwards. A miracle is exactly what’s needed.

    The Rosary. It has to be the Rosary.

    Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum
    Benedicta tu in mulieribus,
    et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Iesus.

    Sancta Maria, mater Dei,
    ora pro nobis peccatoriubus nunc,
    et in hora mortis nostrae.
    Amen.

  13. TomG says:

    Sent a donation and stated that I had asked for the intercession of Francis Cardinal George, whose passing was due to cancer.

  14. Allan S. says:

    I created a free prayer card with the Novena from the family’s Go Fund Me page, and sent the PDF to Fr. Z. Hopefully, those cleverer than I will find a way to get it into anyone’s hands who wishes it. The card will be an effect aid to the Novena, and contains the proper image.

  15. Semper Gumby says:

    Donation sent and prayers begun.

    Prayers going up now for dear Michelle and her family.
    Greetings from us with a little one with Down Syndrome also; such a blessing on the family.
    Thanks for flagging up the devotion to Our Lady of Good Success, I have only recently heard about this and wish to know more.

  17. Liz says:

    I will say prayers for Michelle. What a sweet family she and her husband have! I can only imagine what they are going through. I will get my little ones to pray also. God bless them!

  18. Mariana2 says:

    What a heavenly parish, too.

    Eternal Father,
    You alone grant us every blessing in Heaven and on earth,
    through the redemptive mission of Your Divine Son, Jesus Christ,
    and by the working of the Holy Spirit.
    If it be according to Your Will, glorify Your servant, ARCHBISHOP FULTON J. SHEEN,
    by granting the favor I now request through his prayerful intercession for the complete healing of Michelle and the safe delivery of baby 5.
    I make this prayer confidently through Jesus Christ,our Lord. Amen.
