I just wanted to let you, and all the wonderful people on this forum that my mother considered her friends, Kattracks, passed away yesterday afternoon. She died peacfully, with her family at her bedside. If you knew my mother, you knew how concerned she was with the welfare of others. At one point in the afternoon, we were all gathered at her bed, reminiscing about her,the good times, and all the good things she had done for others. It was as if she had waited for this moment, when she knew that her loved ones were going to be alright, that she was able to let go, and pass into the care of God. To all that knew her, be rest assured that she is waching over you from Heaven. That is just the way my mother was. She always put the welfare of others ahead of her own.

Everytime my brother, father, or I would leave the house, my mother’s last words to us was “Be Careful”. I asked her one day why she always said this to us. She explained to me that in that one phrase was wrapped up all the prayers, concerns, and love that she had for us, but to explain it all to us as we walked out the door would take too long, so she would just say “Be careful”. I’m glad I asked her what she meant, because from that day on, and everytime she said it since then, I understood who, and what, my mother was.

Thank you all for your prayers and support for her.

Original thread:

Kattracks has asked me to begin a prayer thread for her, the hardest thing I have ever been asked to do.

She has had a very frightening finding on a medical exam that is not confirmed and may be a false alarm, but which requires all of us to uplift her to Almighty God asking for His mercy to spare her life or to give her and us the strength and faith to walk the path He has chosen for her.

More information than that I am not at liberty to disclose.

Please ping everyone you know who can pray for kattracks, who was long a moderator on FR and now is the Fairy Godmother of the Merry Band of Patriots.

I'm praying for Kattracks now, and when I go to the Abbey this weekend, I'll include her in my prayers. (Prayer works, too. God listens.)

Standing with you in Prayer for our Dear Kattracks, in our Savior's Holy Name.

Our Merciful Master, we Bow Before You with Loving Hearts, So Thankful for Your Love for our Friend. In Your Hand she is Safe, Resting in the Grace of the King. We Plead for Mercies, our Lord, for Health and Peace, through Your Name. Fill the Minds of her Physicians with Wisdom, and their Hearts with Insight, but Most of All with Heavenly Great Grace. Grace Over this Entire Situation, Lord God, and a Miracle of Healing is what we Pray. We Ask that this was a False Alarm; we Ask for Heavenly Strength for Your Lamb. Blanket her with Comfort, Papa-Father, and a Touch from our Beloved Shepherd-King.

We Love You, our Gracious Savior, and Look to You for Wonderous Things. Hold you Daughter Close, Loving Lord, as You Walk with her through this Fiery Trial. In the Name of His Majesty of Heaven, our King Jesus we Pray, amen.

Cast All your Care upon Him; for He Careth for you. (1Pet.5:7)

The Father Himself loveth you. (Jn.16:27)
