           Rico. After just a couple of months, they were engaged,
           and soon they were married.
           Since then, my dad has continued with his practice
           helping people for more than 25 years–even the ones
           who thought they couldn't find help. He has had patients
           who could not get pregnant or patients who had not been
           able to carry their babies to term. However, through the
           knowledge God has blessed him with, my father has been
           able to help them! My mom was one of his first success
           stories and has birthed six healthy children.
           In addition, from 2003 to 2019, my dad has studied and
           taught martial arts. He has served in the Texas State
           Guard as Captain Danforth and is now West Texas
