[Magdalen] Little prayer request

[James Oppenheimer-Crawford]

No matter what the potential illness, the most terrifying words of a doctor
are "We'll see what the tests show in a week or so..."

Nothing you can do but wait. You know there's an answer, for good or for
ill, coming, but you just have to hold your life in abeyance until "next
week."
