Bright and intelligent Francis was a Scottish. When he was five years old, he got into a car accident which left him blind and gave him viral liver infections. In frustration, the parents took him to a pilgrimage in Medjugorje, hoping that a miracle would happen.

They lived as a devoted family. One day when they prayed the rosary together, Francis suddenly said: "Jesus is not praying in this way." Everyone curiously looked at him and said: "The first half of the scripture was spoken to Mary by the Angel." However, Francis said:" The Angel also heard the message from God; he was just a messenger."

On another occasion, when they prayed “The Hail Mary”, he said with a smile: “I certainly will not leave you." He seemed to act like Jesus and said to the Virgin Mary: "May God be with you, I will be with you forever!"

When the Virgin Mary appeared to the Visionaries, Francis had the opportunity to stand next to them. They all wished that the Virgin Mary could heal him. Afterwards, he said: "When the Virgin Mary appeared, a miracle has happened to me and I have completely forgiven the driver who hurt me. I prayed that through my physical pain, many people would feel relief in their hearts.”

Today, this little brother has passed away. He taught me how to pray “The Hail Mary” in the way of Jesus. Although he was blind, he could see more than we did, because he was able to pray with his heart.
