Jon

You were two and you were in the kitchen with me.  You were always very good when you were little , and you never got into trouble but this day for some reason you reached up and pulled the handle of the saucepan I was using to poach eggs.  You'd never done such a thing before.

 It took MONTHS to heal....you were in hospital for almost a year and the wound would not heal. But you too were a miracle as with Matthew (brother Leukemia)  and Dad (heart attack quad bypass): after 6 months, in despair I made a novena (that's 9 hail Marys for 9 days) and on the last day a district nurse appeared who said that the problem was over & we'll soon see healing. From that day steady healing started, the wound began to heal and within days we saw the improvement and it healed quickly after that.

I hate to talk about it cos it was my fault.
