Unconscious for over 30 minutes

This week I was taken into hospital for an emergency appendix operation. It was about six in the morning, and everything was silent in the A and E department of the private hospital in Madrid. The silence was broken by the desperate shouts of a young father who ran into the children’s emergency section carrying a half-dressed child of 3 or 4. “Please, somebody, help me!” he shouted. He was in pajamas and slippers. “He’s been like this for over 30 minutes, he’s unconscious!” He handed the child to a nurse. I began praying to God with the St Josemaria prayer-card while the nurses and doctor tried to resuscitate the child. I heard the sound of the defibrillator three times as I was finishing the prayers. As I began to pray the card for the second time, there came the sound of a child crying. I started to weep and thanked God.
