The doctors at the Children's Hospital in San Miguel, Argentina, find no explanation for
the quick recovery of Martin Chain – a three-year-old boy who fell from the ninth floor
when he was playing on the balcony of his apartment.

The June 7 accident left the boy on the verge of death. However, he only took 20 days
to recover and shows no signs of long-term complications.

"I was working when I got a voice mail from my husband Maximo. He was screaming.
He told me that  Martin had fallen off the balcony," the child's mother, Florencia Núñez,
told the local Clarin newspaper.

The day of the accident, Martin's father was fixing something to eat when the little boy
went by himself out to the balcony and climbed up onto the railing while playing. Martin
then fell almost 100 feet down to the courtyard of the building with nothing breaking the
impact.

"As he peered out, Maxi saw Piti (Martin) face down, lying on a patch of wet ground
amid debris. And he saw him move," Núñez said.

The father rushed down to Martin and brought him to the Children's Hospital in
Tucuman, where he received immediate care. The doctors were stunned to see the little
boy was conscious and crying, but without any broken bones.

However, Martin still suffered from trauma to the abdomen and skull, as well as a
pulmonary contusion which caused breathing problems for him. For weeks he was
under an induced coma, connected to an artificial respirator and feeding tubes.
Florencia said that in face of her son's serious condition, "we didn't stop praying and Piti
gradually began to get better. One day while I was singing to him a song to the Virgin,
he finally woke up."

From that moment, Martin began to recover. He first went to intermediate care, then
they took him off the respirator and he was finally discharged.

"He just has a few problems walking, but it's nothing permanent. With physical therapy
he can make a 100 percent recovery," hospital director Cristina García de Alabarse, told
Clarin.

"He will have to continue with a psychologist, and physical checkups for a while, but we
don't expect he'll have major problems long term. It's incredible."  

Despite being "a woman of science," Garcia says she has never heard "of a similar
case, it is, at the least, unusual that a person could fall from such a height and have so
few aftereffects."

"There are times that for us professionals, there's nothing left but to put ourselves in
God's hands. I'm Catholic and I believe that miracles exist. Something happened there,"
she said.

Essay:

Yes, we do believe that the news article was a miracle because even the doctors
couldn't explain the phenomenon. It is unexpected that a toddler can quickly survive in
that kind of situation without suffering any ramifications. Even the physicians are unable
to explain the phenomenon, which is why we think the news story is a miracle. It is
considered a miracle since it is inconceivable that a toddler would have survived in that
kind of circumstance without suffering any long-term consequences. In conclusion with
this observation about our article and the concept that we stand, we definitely believe
that God is real and the miracle has truly happened.

We believe that miracles are works of God since we humans are incapable of
performing miracles. The toddler was healed without any repercussions as a result of
his mother's prayers. There are so many illogical phenomena that even people and
experts can't explain, hence we think miracles are works of God. This news story about
bodily healing is an example of how only God can accomplish an exceptional and
impossible deed. To summarize everything that we have stated above, we believe in
miracles and it do happen with the powers that our God, Jesus Christ have.
