I dedicate this retablo to the Virgin of Los Remedios because thanks to her blessed intervention the lead majorette of our neighborhood group got sick with stomach pain and diarrhea, so now it’s me who is going to carry the baton at the Saint Anselm Day parade.

I thank the Holy Virgin with this retablo for granting me health. I got sick out of fear after seeing a flying object in the sky over my ranch. First, I though it was a plane, but it was something round. I was told it was an UFO from another world. It gave me a terrible diarrhea which wouldn’t stop.
