So much so, that when I come to write to the Portelinha where you have a huge image of St. George, look he and compliance, talk to him and ask blessing.

Until then, she thought she was in trouble because he was very ill and could not detect the fetus in any examination fazia.Os doctors chair covers thought it was problem in the gallbladder, kidney stones. All the while, she took medication and did x-rays, which is forbidden for pregnant women because of the radiation.
When we finally found that it was a pregnancy, doctors guided my mother remove her child because she had been exposed to a lot of chemistry and medication, and the risks I was born with malformations were huge. At that time, she was always very attached to St. Barbara and St. George, promised to the Holy Warrior your born without problems, it would give its name to me. Thus it was. I was born perfect and without sequelae, received the name of Jorge and faith for him. To date this practice my faith seeking combat injustice and always putting me next to the weakest.
