Eternal Spirit, grant Ashley strength and peace.
—Strength to face the treatment plan she has chosen. Peace to live in the presence of uncertainty.
—Strength to be the wonderful mother that she has always been for her daughter. Peace in the knowledge that her daughter loves her and is strong enough to face her illness.
—Strength to listen with grace to the sometimes unhelpful, floundering words of her friends. Peace in knowing those words, though weak and ill-conceived, draw from a deep well of concern and hope.
—Strength to sustain her through pain and worry. Peace to sustain her through pain and worry.
Give Ashley these things, and give us the will to be the mediators of the gift.
