My Dad is in afib, please pray.

[Fr. Gabriel T Mosher, OP @lukei4655]

Say a prayer. Gone to the Urgent Care with a type of rash on my hands and forehead. For context Utah is having a Measles outbreak so … yeah, I’m hoping this ain’t that.

Update:

Praise God! Deo gratias!

God is merciful and good, we take whatever He giveth and praise Him also when He taketh.

God saw fit to answer all of your prayers with a 'yes'. We didn't deserve it but He gave us a gift.

My father's cancer has shrunk!!
He is responding amazingly to his therapy!!
His oncologist is thrilled with the results!!

Additionally, while the tumour itself has shrunk, there are also no metastases whatsoever. My dad is also slowly gaining weight back.

Know that I pray for all who pray for me and my dad. God willing, I will light a candle after Mass this Sunday, asking God specifically to reward each of you for your prayers and your charity.

Whatever happens down the line, God is good and faithful. I hope with all my heart to meet all of you in heaven one day 🙏❤️

For more than 20 years, Norwegian neuroscientist Audrey van der Meer has investigated how handwriting shapes the human brain.

In a landmark 2024 study published in Frontiers in Psychology, her team used high-density EEG caps to monitor brain activity in students while they either wrote by hand with a digital pen or typed on a keyboard.

The difference was dramatic. Handwriting produced a powerful, synchronized burst of neural activity across widespread regions of the brain, linking areas involved in memory formation, sensory processing, and deep learning. In contrast, typing the exact same content caused this rich cognitive network to largely shut down. Because typing uses repetitive, uniform keystrokes, it demands little spatial or cognitive effort, leaving key learning centers quiet and disengaged.

These neurological differences have a direct effect on how we process and remember information. Earlier research by Pam Mueller and Daniel Oppenheimer at Princeton University reached similar conclusions. Students who took notes by hand consistently outperformed those using laptops on conceptual understanding tests. Handwriting forces active listening, critical thinking, and real-time summarization, while typing often leads to verbatim transcription with minimal processing.

Our brains function as part of an embodied biological system. Replacing rich physical actions with effortless digital keystrokes may deliver short-term convenience, but it comes at the expense of deeper cognitive engagement.

The solution is simple and timeless: pick up a pen.

Kind of in a dark place right now. Thinking of not being around anymore.

Prayers may help.

If anyone could spare a quick prayer for my baby who is suffering from near constant reflux, we would both really appreciate it
