Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration
When I was recovering from my tonsillectomy, alone for the most part, things got pretty dark. After days alone, in pain, with little sleep, I felt like I was at the end of my rope. I’m sure all the pain medicine added to my dispair. I was never a Catholic, or even a very devout Christian. I don’t remember how I came upon the Franciscan Sisters’ website, but there I was. The Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration hold 24 hour, 365 days a year prayer. They have for many many years. I read that anyone who needs to can make a request for prayer to the Sisters. I was willing to try anything. I filled out the online request form.
I was told that for the next seven days, the Sisters would be praying for me. Wow! That’s powerful. I don’t care what your faith is- the thought of that gives great comfort. I needed comfort- badly! My recovery was still hard, but I took just a little comfort in knowledge that someone was praying for me. I also remember feeling anxious as the 7th day arrived. By the time it did, I was on the mend and knew that it was others’ turn to receive the prayers of the Sisters.
Prayer Request
People who know me personally would probably be very surprised that I participated in this. They’d be even more surprised to learn that I was posting a link to the Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration’s website. I rarely even go to church. I don’t care. It helped me. It might help you.
So here’s the link. Check it out. I wish you comfort and good health.

Hello all, I am on day 6 post op, 19 f. I have never endured so much pain and as a singer, I really hope the rest of the healing process will not be as bad, but I pray mostly for the outcome of my singing voice way after I’m healed. I am barely able to eat anything and my pain medication wears off so quickly that it does not matter to take it. Reading everyone’s comments really does help a bit, and I hope for a painless, speedy recovery to all on here
