    Father of Love and Mercy,
    Thank you so much for our dear friend Lu. Thank you for her strength and courage and for the inspiration she is to all of us. Be with her today, as you are each day with all of us, but allow her especially today to be aware of your presence. To know that You, O Holy One, have your loving arms around her. Sing to her a lullaby of peace, and keep us ever mindful of your love. Amen

    Thinking of you Lu

    Lord, we need You as Great Physician and Healer. We are asking that You visit our Lu's hospital bed and bring with You divine power that will make her well again.

    It is a frightening and uncomfortable thing to be placed in the hospital because of her illness . Her body has been assaulted . We ask You to get Lu through this crisis and bring her to the place where she is whole again.

    Lord, in Your mercy we ask that through this turmoil You might grant her peace of mind.

    Lord, in Your mercy we ask that through the battery of tests, answers might be found.

    Lord, in Your mercy we ask for divine guidance upon the attending physicians.

    Lord, in Your mercy we ask she is treated with dignity by aides and nurses.

    Lord, in Your mercy we ask for comfort for her loved ones who are concerned for Lu.


    We pray for a time of healing from You and a time of gathering strength from You.
    We pray for renewed health and wellness, through Christ Jesus. Amen

    I just
    called LU's sister
    Debbie....

    Lu is not
    doing well
    I am at
    a loss for words
    right now~~
    and hope that I am
    making sense

    Ladies please
    pray for LU...

    they are talking
    about taking
    her off life support

    Lu posted this
    prayer on 5-14-04
    please pray with me

    O Mother of mercy, comforter of the afflicted,
    you know my suffering and my needs. Look upon
    me with loving kindness.
    By appearing at the Grotto of Lourdes, you made
    it a sacred place, a sanctuary of healing.
    Many have been cured there, both physically and
    spiritually. I come, therefore, with faith in the
    Lord's healing power.
    O Mary, please grant my requests for healing.
    Most of all, help me to know and embrace God's
    will for me.
    Amen

    Thanks Patti. This is the news we never want to hear. I'll pray with you today. For Lu, and for those in similar situations, and for those who are having a hard time dealing with and coping with this disease.

    A PRAYER TO OUR LADY FOR HEALING

    Mary Immaculate, you have given
    yourself to us as our Lady of the Miraculous Medal.You have asked us to pray
    with confidence,and we will receive
    great graces. We know your compassion,
    because you saw your Son suffer and die
    for us. In your union with His suffering you
    became the mother of us all.

    Mary, my mother, teach me to understand
    my suffering as you do and to endure
    it in union with the suffering of Jesus. In
    your motherly love, calm my fears and
    increase my trust in God's loving care.

    According to God's plan, obtain for me
    the healing I need. Intercede with your Son
    that I may have the strenght I need to work
    for God's glory and the salvation of the
    world.
    Amen
    Mary,health of the sick,pray for us.
    May God grant us healing and all the graces
    we need through the intercession of our Lady
    of the Miraculous Medal.



    Father
    Please be with Lu ,her family and her dear friends
    here.

    Lord hear our prayers
    I ask in the name of Jesus, That you send your angels
    to protect Lu surround her with your light, love and Healing.
    Amen

    Patti,

    Thanks for the update..I so wish it had been better news though...I will keep Lu and her family in my prayers..



    I said a prayer for you my friend,
    That your struggles would soon end.

    That you would feel God's peace with you,
    As you trust Him each day through.

    I prayed that you would feel His love,
    Rain down on you from up above.

    I asked Him to take care of you,
    Fill you with joy and laughter too.

    I prayed that He would let you know,
    That He will never let you go.

    That He'd pour blessings down on you,
    And make your grey skies turn to blue.

    I prayed that God would give you rest,
    And that He'd answer your request.

    I asked the Lord to touch your soul,
    Fill you with hope and make you whole.

    My friend I prayed that you would feel,
    His gentle touch reach down and heal.

    I said a prayer for you my friend,
    My best wishes to you I send.

    --Nancy Burr--

    My Dear Sisters

    I received
    a note
    from Lu's
    sister Debbie
    informing me
    that Lu passed away
    at 1.32 am
    surrounded by family
    and friends

    She wanted me to
    thank all of you
    for being so
    caring and supportive

    I had the privilege
    of sharing many
    emails and pms
    with Lu over the course
    of three years

    She was an
    amazing women
    who had great hope
    of beating this disease

    Despite her
    own battle
    Lu was committed to
    helping others
    battling this disease

    Many were inspired
    and amazed by her
    energy
    determination
    upbeat manor
    wit
    and unwavering faith

    She never wavered
    on hope for herself
    or for us

    I received
    a note from Lu
    earlier this year
    telling me not to worry
    about her==
    because we had
    other women
    who needed us
    because they
    were dealing with this disease
    and were scared ~~

    She was truly
    caring and special

    Lu taught
    Us all by example
    with grace...dignity...courage
    and love~~

    My life
    has been
    deeply enriched
    because of her

    She will be truly
    Missed by all
    Of us at BC.Org...

    But never forgotten~~

    Because she
    Touched so many
    Lives in such
    A loving and spirited way


    Our angel
    Has her wings
    and joins our other
    angels now...

    "Beyond the door
    there's peace I'm sure,
    And I know there'll
    be no more tears in heaven"~~Eric Clapton

    May God
    be with Lu's family
    durning this very
    sad and difficult time~~

    Lu I will
    always miss you

    My special
    love goes out
    to all of you
    my board sisters
    you are the
    best.......

    xoxo
    Patti

    ps

    I am hoping
    to hear from Debbie
    about arrangements..I would
    like to send a rose...I will post more
    later when I have more details

    I have this
    special poem
    on a card...I think
    Lu would have wanted
    us to remember her this way

    with love
    to all of you
    Patti

    AFTER GLOW
    I'd like the memory
    of me to be a happy one,

    I'd like to leave an afterglow
    of smiles when life is done.

    I'd like to leave
    an echo whispering softly down the ways,
    of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days.

    I'd like the tears of those who grieve,
    to dry before the sun
    of happy memories
    that I leave when life is done.

    The poem is so pretty Patti.
    I know she is in heaven with all my heart.
    No more suffering for Luanne
    She is feeling strong with no pain and no sorrow
    and happy. I am picturing her as a beautiful Angel.

    But I am sad for those left behind

    Hugs,
    Carrie
