My diagnosis of left ventricular hypertrophy made in a private clinic (during the medical tests) has been reasonably refuted in a municipal clinic. So now I can allow myself, with a light heart, not to count how many beer bottles I drink at the party. I thanks Saint Jude Thaddeus for that.

I give thanks to the Virgin of Guadalupe for taking care of my family and for giving us strength to keep painting. I pray to her to take care and guide my loved ones, my friends and those who need it the most, so that we could make it safe and sound through this COVID-19 pandemic. Amen.

My family and I are asking Saint Jude Thaddeus to stop this pandemic, and thanks to Saint Jude we don’t have COVID-19 coronavirus.

Our Lady of the Solitude, I’m going to give you thanks for sending me the cure which I asked you for so much finding myself in such a horrible trouble when I was told they were going to cut off my tit because of a torturing pain. In this grief, I entrusted myself to you and was cured in time avoiding this dangerous surgery. Now I’m healthy again and back to work.

Holy Trinity! Divine Providence! I humbly ask you, with this retablo, to find the cure for the COVID-19 and therefore stop this terrible pandemic that affected the entire world. I ask you for health to all the people sick with this virus and for eternal peace to those who died.

My son Paquito lied to me saying that he ate good and healthy food that I packed him for school lunch. But in reality he was buying sweets and junk food. Because of that he got stomach pain. I thank the Holy Child Doctor for his illness wasn’t serious and he learned his lesson—he shouldn’t lie and he must eat healthy for his own good.

Fidel Quiroz ate green cherimoyas and got a diarrhea. No remedy would help him, and he implored the Holy Child of Atocha. Fidel got better, could play with his team and even won the championship. He thanks for that.

Puebla, 1945

Thank you, Virgin of Juquila, for delivering me from this damned rheumatism that didn’t let me walk. I thank you with this retablo for letting walk till your sanctuary.

The father Macario Mendoza brings the present retablo to Saint Pascual Baylon thanking him for he got recovered from a bad typhus and now can enjoy again chiles en nogada made by the nuns of the convent.

Puebla, 1917

Whenever my husband has a gout attack, he becomes unbearable. He’s getting bored and asking me to bring him some absurd things to bed, and after a while he doesn’t need them anymore and asks me for other things. So I have to ran back and forth. I thank the Virgin of Zapopan because the herbalist gave me a tea which prevent the attacks. And even if they happen thy don’t last so much. I’m much ore happier when I don’t need to look after my husband for long time.

Porfiria became gravely ill. She got fungus all over her body and even on the nails. She was suffering but couldn’t find a remedy that would help her. Then she prayed to the Lord of Toluca and was cured of this nasty fungus pretty quickly.

Eusebia Maldonado was sick with fever, and many little red devils came to her. They climbed to Eusebia’s bed and pricked her with their tridents. She though she was going to die and the devils came to take her to hell. Although she had sinned, she didn’t think she’d sinned so much to suffer this harassment from the devils. She prayed the Virgin of Zapopan for protection, and the Virgin appeared in her splendor and scared the devils away. They left Eusebia in peace and ran back to hell.
