@DocPriyamMD B) Aspirin to chew
In the case of hemorrhagic stroke this would likely kill. Aspirin would inhibit thromboxane A2 making platelets sticky and able to clot. The first physiological response to a ruptured vessel is to plug it by clotting. No clot=increase ICP=lethal.
The Son of God, through whom all things were created, was not welcomed, and a poor manger for animals was his crib. The eternal Word of the Father whom the heavens cannot contain chose to come into the world in this way. Out of love, he accepted poverty and rejection, identifying himself with those who are discarded and excluded. #Christmas
“Mary’s greatness consists in the fact that she wants to magnify God, not herself. She is lowly: her only desire is to be the handmaid of the Lord.”
- Pope Benedict XVI
For more than 1,700 years, Saint Januarius’ blood has liquified on his most holy feast day.
Today, it happened again!
Tell me Catholicism isn’t totally rad and true!!!
Saint Januarius, holy martyr for the faith, pray for us.
St. Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the
wickedness & snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
& do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
& all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen
Oh how beautiful our universal Church is 🥹
To think that 2,000 years ago in this very spot, our first Pope Peter was brutally crucified & martyred for his faith, & now over 1.4 billion people rejoice at our 267th Pope is so humbling 🇻🇦🕊
I ask Jesus Christ to grant that His Sacred Heart may continue to pour forth the streams of living water that can heal the hurt we have caused, strengthen our ability to love and serve others, and inspire us to journey toward a just, solidary, and fraternal world. #DilexitNos
