Summary
Patrick addresses the possibility of fetal-micro-chimerism and if the presence of Jesus's cells provided healing for Mary, receiving Communion if one gets to Mass late, when to stop praying for the dead, and TLM vs Novus Ordo. Patrick shares his wisdom and perceptivity, all from a Catholic focal point, to answer listeners' question.
- Email - James - Can you explain fetal micro-chimerism and if the presence of Jesus's cells could have provided healing effects for Mary?
- Maria - Can a Catholic receive communion if they come late for Mass?
- Gloria - My mom died recently, and I have been praying for her. When do I stop praying for her soul and start prayer to her as a saint?
- Alex - I would like to talk about the TLM versus the Novus Ordo and how uncharitable the liturgy wars are. What is your take on it?
- Paulette - Can you explain the apostolic blessing which my husband received before he died? Did my husband go straight to heaven?

| 0:19.7 | All right, and away we go. Hour 2 is here if you want to be on the air, call 888-914-9-149. I do have space available for you right now if you call. Lines tend to get jammed up as we get further into the show, though. So sometimes people say, I call your show all the time and I can't get on because there's always a busy signal. |
| 0:38.3 | Well, if that's you, call now and we'll get you in there. |
| 0:41.2 | 88-914-9-49. |
| 0:43.8 | Plenty of emails to get to as well while people are getting ready. |
| 0:47.1 | This one comes in just this morning from James. |
| 0:49.6 | He says, during Mary's pregnancy with Jesus, how might fetal microchimerism have influenced her physiology |
| 0:57.6 | and health throughout her life? Could the presence of Jesus' cells have provided unique healing |
| 1:02.8 | or protective effects beyond what is typical for other women? What do you think? Love the show, |
| 1:07.6 | as always. Well, I'm happy to hear that. Thank you for that, James. Well, I don't have, like, deep knowledge. I'm familiar with what microchimerism is, I'm sorry, |
| 1:17.5 | microchimerism is in how some small amount of cells that are from the baby that was gestating in the |
| 1:25.0 | mother's womb and the baby that's born will remain in the mother. |
| 1:30.3 | And so there's, as I understand it, a transfer from the mother to the child and from the child to the |
| 1:37.8 | mother. And this involves the, I suppose you'd say the DNA that's involved in the cells that are transferred, |
| 1:45.7 | and they can have an effect on each other. |
| 1:49.0 | Beyond that, I don't have deep knowledge of this, |
| 1:51.2 | so I'm only familiar with it in a cursory way. |
| 1:53.9 | But let's talk about it as a physiological phenomenon |
| 1:58.0 | that I don't think we as human beings even knew about until just recently, maybe |
| 2:03.6 | in the last 30, 40 years. I'd have to look that up to find out when we became aware of this. |
