My Religious Experience:

Birth of a Grandson

My oldest daughter, Angela Alvarez, after they were married for three years, she had a miscarriage. Two years later she was pregnant again. I asked Rev. Kanai to pray for her.

He gave her a special sash to make her delivery more easy. She began having severe labor pains, so she went to the hospital. She was informed by the doctors that her water had broken and was prematurely leaking. They gave her IV supplied water to replace the lost water, but her blood pressure began to get dangerous low and her unborn body's heartbeat was very weak. The doctors had gathered to discuss what should be done.

I became very worried, so I went outside and prayed "Namu Myoho Renge Kyo" while holding my amulet. My daughter also held her amulet and prayed. The doctors then decided to perform a caesurae operation which resulted in the birth of a healthy 7 pound 14 ounce baby boy.
