For A Seriously Ill High Schooler

[Piccoli Fiori JMJ]

There is a young lady named Meagan (A HS Junior) who has recently been diagnosed with a fungal infection. They have her on a respirator and things are really scary and stressful for the whole family. She has a twin brother, Jimmy, who has to go to school still, knowing that his sister is seriously ill. Her mom, Mary, is a single mom who is taking time off to be by her daughters side, and she is not receiving any pay during this time (and she didn't make much to begin with and lives with her parents). I see their family at Mass nearly every week and I just heard that our pastor may have suggested that they find a closer priest to visit Meagan in the hospital, when all they want is a familiar face and some support from their parish.

Please pray for this family. Things are very tough for them all right now.
