Sue Vega's progress


We keep receiving God’s blessings and can’t thank HIM enough for all HIS works. Susan is progressing very nicely. Some of you saw her when we took her to be present at the Installation Mass and Dinner yesterday evening. The warmth and love she received from everyone was overwhelming. She was soooo happy afterwards. This was the very first time she has been out to mass, as well as to a social event. Overall she is making great strides physically. Emotionally she is upbeat most of the time. Cognitively she is progressing but still has a very hard time with the “immediate” present and remembering very short term conversations, actions, etc. But she has made such great progress since the onset of the stroke that it is God’s work at hand to see her move forward. -- Luis

Frank's surgery went well.  They were able to remove everything that they could see.  We are waiting for pathology reports on the tumor to help determine next steps. He came home today and is tired but happy to be home.

Prayers for Fr. Mike's Great-nephew Cassidy

We were thrilled to bump into Fr. Mike, while we were babysitting last weekend & he was filling in at St. Katherine Drexel's for mass. He asked for prayers for his Great-nephew, Cassidy who is in a hospital in London recovering from the loss of his leg & other injuries received while fighting in Afghanistan. His two buddies were killed by the same IUD.  I thought you might want to spread the word to our Community. -- Laura Lyon
