Every once in a while God sends you a helicopter - get on it!


With the above in mind, let me tell you how I almost refused all three out of stubborn manliness and pride. This is also a lesson gents in something more profound:


"ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR WIFE!"

I had been feeling great, on vacation working around the house. On the 19th of December something hit me like a ton of bricks and given my usually well-controlled asthma, hit my lungs. Breathing was a struggle, my heart was racing, pain across my chest and shoulders, I almost thought I was having a heart attack. But wait - I don't need a doctor, I just had a treadmill stress test ECG and echocardiogram as a routine thing and at 63, and not too skinny, I got to 94% of maximum heart rate, no restrictions or hypertension and when I started my blood pressure was 120/78. I had been a runner for about 30 years of up to 30km a week. Of course, I ignored it and struggled through. It was a Thursday and the Fox was concerned over the weekend. "Go to the doctor!" Well, finally she said it again on Monday the 23rd. I said no and then lay down. Suddenly a little voice said, "Listen to your wife." It was late 7PM and we found a walk-in clinic and obtained an anti-biotic. It was just before they closed.

God sent a truck, you see. He sent it through my wife, whom I should have listened to earlier, but I eventually got in it.

On the 27th, I felt bad and called the Respirologist, the office was closed and I left a message. On the 30th, the Fox said, "Are you going to call?" Well, I hesitated, after all, I left a message. Again the Fox said, "Call!" I did and it turned out they had over 100 messages and the secretary had not yet gotten to mine. If Fox did not insist, I would not have called and gotten in and checked and things would have gone from bad to worse. I explained the situation and my Jewish doctor with a picture of St. Pio of Pietrelcina on his wall saw me right away. He did not like what he heard and sent me for an xray and had the result on his computer before I got back to the office. Cardial effusion of an unknown cause and ordered into the hospital. I was admitted until January 2 and sent home with treatment and the pericarditis is resolving itself. It turns out, whatever bug I had, latched itself on to the pericardial sac and wreaked havoc.

Last night, January 10, at about 5, I felt week and took my temperature, it was 99.5. As Fox arrived home, it was 100.6 at 5:40 and I suddenly realised, we are not waiting for the helicopter, we're getting into the truck. "Take me to the walk-in" said I. "Don't you think the hospital would be better given the situation?" said Fox. Well, guess what. The walk-in had a sign up that they were taking no more. I asked the receptionist to ask the doctor, the doctor said "No." Well, that was the Holy Spirit. Why? Because, it turns out that I am a fluid kind of guy - the heart is clearing up but now it is in the lungs but caught at the early stage so now, I have influenza and on Tamiflu and they only ascertained this after another xray and various blood tests and ultrasounds - the walk in clinic would have given me a useless anti-biotic and sent my on my way. As an aside, the doctor at the urgent care centre of the hospital said that at the sister hospital where I had been, there was an outbreak of influenza and they had no doubt that that is where I got it. In my case, this was caught early enough that Tamiflu should knock this demon back to Hell. I can already feel some relief - Laus Deo!

I was in this hospital on the 31st of December. Fifteen years to the day that my brother died in that very same hospital of pneumonia of a bug he caught there on the 28th. He had leukaemia and was susceptible to anything and everything. He had gone for a minor matter but it would become the death of him.

Is my point becoming clearer?

As I look back on all of this, there was no doubt in my mind now that I was sent a truck and then a boat and I was turning them down out of my own manly pride.

I have no doubt, none whatsoever in my mind and in my bones that God sent me that truck and that boat. Finally, he sent me a helicopter. My wife was the truck driver, was in the boat and was flying the helicopter.

Thank you Lord for the helicopter piloted by my beloved. Thank you for waking me up and hitting me hard enough to get on it. I'm glad I got on.

To you, dear readers and friends, thank you for your prayers.

And above all:

TE DEUM LAUDAMUS!


 
I.  Praise to the Trinity
We praise thee, O God: we acknowledge Thee to be the Lord.
All the earth doth worship Thee, the Father everlasting.
To Thee all Angels cry aloud: the Heavens and all the powers therein.
To Thee Cherubim and Seraphim continually do cry, Holy, Holy, Holy: Lord God of Sabaoth;
Heaven and earth are full of the Majesty of Thy Glory.
The glorious company of the Apostles praise Thee.
The godly fellowship of the Prophets praise Thee.
The noble army of Martyrs praise Thee.
The holy Church throughout all the world doth acknowledge Thee;
The Father of an infinite Majesty;
Thine honourable, true, and only Son;
Also the Holy Ghost: the Comforter.
 
II.  Praise of Christ
Thou art the King of Glory, O Christ.
Thou art the everlasting  Son of the Father.
When Thou tookest upon Thee to deliver man: Thou didst not abhor the Virgin's womb.
When Thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death, Thou didst open the Kingdom of Heaven to all believers.
Thou sittest at the right hand of God in the glory of the Father.
We believe that Thou shalt come to be our Judge.
We therefore pray Thee, help Thy servants whom Thou hast redeemed with Thy precious blood.
Make them to be numbered with Thy Saints in glory everlasting.
 
III.  Prayers
O Lord, save Thy people: and bless Thine heritage.
Govern them and lift them up for ever.
Day by day we magnify Thee; and we worship Thy Name, ever world without end.
Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us this day without sin.
O Lord, have mercy upon us.
O Lord, let Thy mercy lighten upon us: as our trust is in Thee.
O Lord, in Thee have I trusted: let me never be confounded.

The Octave of the Epiphany - stolen from you and me, but we can take it back!

We are now at the second day within the Octave of the Epiphany. Never heard of it, eh? Well, if you follow the nervous disorder, then you're not alone. For even the 1962 does not have it. Those monsters were already there and for whatever reason. Pope Pius XII listened to that demon Bugnini and not only gutted the Holy Week but did in the Octave of the Epiphany as well. It is not only the Novus Ordo that needs to be thrown into the dustbin of history but eventually the 1962. It is not that some simplifications were not necessary but all of it went to far. There will come a time to go back to 1949 and start over!

The irony is that you can still find ghosts of it in the 1962 and the 1970 disaster.

So why not just bring it back/

But you can still honour it.

Oh, and did you know that the Church has always taught that the Epiphany, the Baptism of the Lord and the Wedding Feast at Cana all occurred on the same day as the Lord's great Manifestations?

No, you didn't - because they robbed you of that, too!

Red pill friends. Now!

Tribus miraculis ornatum, diem sanctum colimus:
Hodie stella Magos duxit ad praesepium:
Hodie vinum ex aqua factum est ad nuptias:
Hodie in Jordane a Joanne Christus baptizari voluit,
ut salvaret nos, Alleluia.
We observe this holy day, ornamented with three miracles:
Today a star led the Magi to the manger;
Today wine was made from water at the wedding;
Today in the Jordan Christ desired to be baptised by John,
so that He might save us, Alleluia.

The slap heard around the world

Pope slaps woman's hand; video goes viral » Sirf News

VIDEO: Pope Francis Repeatedly Slaps at Woman Seeking ...

You've seen the pictures by now. I could not comment on it prior due to my malady and there is not much to say now but this.

Bergoglio hit a woman, twice and he stormed off as the petulant monster that he has often displayed. There is no excuse. She waited for hours to see him, to plead about something - China? A personal situation? What did Jesus do when the woman touched the hem of his garment? 

A commentator, whom I thank dearly, has just replied and in justice, I print it here: 
"Spanish speaker here and I apologize for my broken English. I do not like the man who now usurps the chair of Peter and I think there is no excuse for slapping a woman, but I clearly hear him saying to her: "Hey, dame la mano". That's it. No more. Which translates: "Hey, let go of my hand" or "give me my hand". Nothing added. I am surprised that people say he called her "bruja" or "puta" or anything else. I tried to hear several times and I never hear something similar. I mention this out of justice."
Even Pope Francis gets angry: Catholic head filmed ...Yes, Bergoglio is human, but it is no excuse. He did the same thing in Mexico. Remember this? 

Don't give me the garbage that he is human. This is a result of his egoism, his desire to be god, to be seen as so humble. Well, I guess the smell of that little sheep wasn't good enough for the man who grovels and kisses the feet of tribal leaders and loves to be seen with the global elite.

The man is a putrid disgrace. The woman was desperate, clearly. Where was his mercy? Oh, he's apologised? Means nothing. Let him seek her out and apologise to her. He hit her, twice.

The man is a creep and a disgusting boor on top of everything else.

Prayers please - update

Thank you for your prayers and kind wishes. Pericarditis is nothing to ever ignore friends. It can happen without warning and unless it is from one of the more obvious causes, heart attack or surgery and such things, it can be from viral or bacterial chest infection that migrates to the pericardial sack as in my case. It's not nice and don't delay ever being treated.

It's not gone but under control enough that I can be home with medication because as nice as the nurses and staff were, who the heck wants to be in the hospital.

Thank you all.



Friends,

On this evening of the slap heard around the world, may I request prayers as I will be in hospital for treatment and observation for 48 hours. It seems that the wretched bug that deep-sixed my singing at Midnight Mass and St Stephen’s has invaded the area around my heart causing fluid and pressure.

The option of not attending to this does not exist because it would mean sticking me with a needle and tube (think here of the dropsy scene from Downton Abbey) or worse - like no room for heart to beat and, well, I am into singing Requiems for others, not having it done for me, not for decades yet, please God. But worry not, improvement is occurring.

I will be out of commission tomorrow as well and blogging will be pretty light if any.

And don’t slap any women!

Here is to Anno Domini 2020!

Te Deum Laudamus.

The "spastic" papacy of Bergoglio does not even spare the Most Blessed Mother

Mary of Nazareth, Our Lady, Our Blessed Mother was preserved by the future sacrificed of her Son from original sin so that he could dwell in her for nine months as He became the Flesh to save all of us and the world. It is so simple, no? Therefore, by this, Blessed Mary ever-virgin participated in every way in our salvation, even in her own sorrows which Simeon told her, "and as sword will pierce your heart." It is in this that logic simply tells that her part by her fiat, her so be it, to the Angel Gabriel and his message from God meant that she participated in every way. She was a "co" a partner and active participant in our redemption - she was Co-Redemptrix. One does not need to be a theologian to get this and it is to the loss of the Protestants that they continue to deny it.

In today's Matins we read this sermon by St. Leo, Pope:

In any day of the year, dearly beloved, whenever we make our meditations, we are mindful of the birth from a Virgin Mother of our Lord and Saviour. Whenever our souls are uplifted in the worship of our Maker, whether we sigh in supplication, rejoice in praise, or offer sacrifice, there is nothing which we more frequently or more confidently set our minds upon than the fact that God, the Son of God, begotten of the co-eternal Father, was also born by a human birth. But on this day his Nativity, which is to be adored both in heaven and on earth, is brought before us as at no other time. For today it is as though a new and radiant light is shining forth in the heavens, in such wise that the brightness of this wondrous mystery is perceived even by our senses. And not only do we call to mind what the Angel Gabriel said to the awe-stricken Mary, but in some sort we seem even to be present at that colloquy when she conceived of the Holy Ghost. And we marvel both at the promise made to her, and at her faith in that promise.

In the Collect after the Alma Redemptoris at the end of Lauds, we read this:

O God, who, by the fruitful virginity of blessed Mary, hast bestowed upon mankind the reward of eternal salvation: grant, we beseech thee, that we may experience her intercession, through whom we have been made worthy to receive the author of life, Our Lord Jesus Christ thy son. Amen.

Nota bene: "by the fruitful virginity of blessed Mary, hast bestowed upon mankind the reward of eternal salvation." Co-Redemptrix!

But not with Bergoglio.

Sandro Magister features an article by Pietro De Marco of the papal homily. The author, a former professor of the sociology of religion at the University of Florence and at the Theological Faculty of Central Italy, a philosopher and historian by training, has for years been known to and appreciated by the readers of Settimo Cielo.

Statement of Hermits of Westray on being "excommunicated"

If you follow Deacon Nick Donnelly then you've no doubt heard of the tragic Christmas Eve "excommunication" of the Hermits of Westray brought to you by the Bergoglian Church of Mercy.

Here is their response.

They can excommunicate all of us. These filthy heretics, effeminates, apostates and Freemasons have no authority over the faithful. They will soon all fall. There time is very, very short.

What is this lovely fragrance?

Can't y'all just feel the luv....

You've probably seen the video of this disgraceful concert at the Vatican audience hall where a young woman from the Amazon came up and said the worlds above to the left. Look at these silly people giving themselves over to Satan.

Look at these wretched effeminate clerics.

But look what else. Look at that hideous and so-called "pectoral" cross of Bergoglio. Is this where the crossed arms come from, never before seen in an image of Christ or is it the Masonic action below.

These people are devils and Bergoglio is the ringleader.
