'ELENA'S FIRE'

They say when you meet the 'one,' time stands still. And so it was when WILLIE SANTOS and ELENA DE LOS FUEGOS set eyes on each other. They were inseparable, a perfect couple until tragedy struck when Elena goes into a coma after giving birth. Yet Willie Santos could not let her go despite being told by doctors she would never recover. Life would be meaningless without her. But his faith is strengthened after being visited by an angel which tells him, "The world has no sadness that heaven cannot heal." Willie Santos was unwilling to coldly disconnect her from the life support machines, making her life and existence meaningless. He is strengthened now with an unquestionable belief that a higher power will soon intervene and answer his prayers and bring Elena back to him. But soon after being visited by the angel, the State challenged his ability to provide Elena adequate care with an unlicensed caregiver. Once she was in their control, one sinister doctor was determined to terminate her existence while Willie anxiously waits for a heavenly intervention.
