And to Mary, my Mother, I humbly pray to you….
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection,
implored your help or sought your intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired with this confidence,
I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother;
to you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in your mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.

Please continue to protect us. Please let my new lawyer represent me and my domestic violence situation truthfully and effectively to the Judge. I pray for your intercession for an immediate resolution to our conflict. After yesterday’s car accident and my father’s diagnoses, I find it difficult to go on.
