Saint Francis, thank you for your help. My cutie pie and I were making love when I felt a bite on my leg. I turned to look what it was and saw a horrible snake. I screamed and then fainted. When I got conscious. I was in the hospital when they took care of me. I thank Saint Francis.

I give thanks to the Saint Michael the Archangel because my sons ran away to the mountains and joined the Emiliano Zapata’s people to fight for our rights. They suffered injustice on the hacienda of a cacique, who thought he was our master and treated them like animals. Take care of my sons because they are kids who deserve to be happy as they should be.
