Episode # 4326 - Lauretta Froelich Speaks With Keara Burke and Mary FioRito

  Today's guest is Keara Burke. She and her husband Rory are blessed with five beautiful children.  In January 2019, following her twenty-week checkup, their unborn son, Baby Rory, was diagnosed with Trisomy 18- a life-limiting condition.  We were offered the option of termination.  That wasn't an option for us, so we decided to carry him to term and care for our sick son no matter the length of his life.  We wanted Baby Rory to write his own story and allow his life to unfold as designed.  

  Baby Rory was born June 12, 2019, and lived on earth for five precious days.  We were able to meet him, spend time with him, and bring him home with us.  His four sisters were able to hold him, give him his first bath and make many memories with their beloved brother until his gentle and natural death.

  There are options in caring for your son and daughter during this difficult and heartbreaking illness that bless the family.

Welcome back loyal listeners and today we have the Two Tony’s and Cristina once again here in the studio.  Today, they discuss and reflect once again on all the problems and tragic things that have affected the world.  This brings to mind how each of us starts a new day every day and how we don’t know what to expect at times, but to keep in mind that there will be joy and sorrow.  This also again brings to mind how the younger generation has different things in life that make them feel depressed, lonely, and upset at times from platforms such as social media and even the Pandemic, which sadly has led to a rise in suicides.

Father Anthony speaks about his early experience with his grandmother’s example of her faith. Father talks about the polarization in every aspect of our lives. Father reads Paul’s letter to the Romans as it speaks to our present day. We pray a decade of the Rosary and the Caplet for peace. We talk about Christ’s admonition St. Francis to “renew my Church.” It is a call to conversion and repentance. Respect the glorification of self.
