My son Ricardo Antonio was swinging his sister very hard. My nephew Juanito was playing ball with the dog and didn’t notice how he got on the swing’s way. The swing hit him in the head, and he lost conscience. I was scared that he might die and his mother would accuse me of that. I entrusted him to the Holy Child the Savior.
