I saw an Angel save a child from death

Many people have asked me why they have never seen their very own Angel ? well until today I had never seen any Angel only feel them brush my hair and follow me around and play like children,apart from that Angels would appear before me especially during Reiki sessions,never did I ever think in my wildest dreams that one day soon I would witness an Angel in action saving a life before my very eyes,well that is exactly what happened and it is something that will remain embedded in me for the rest of my life,read on...
Today I visited a friend with my dear wife,we stayed some time talking in depth about many things spiritual,we all know how the time passes so quickly when you get engrossed in a subject and before long it was time for my friend to pick up her two children,one aged 7 who went to a local primary school,and the other aged 4 from the nursery school right next door to the main school,as it happens my friend does not drive,and asked me to take her in my car to pick up the two children,this was not possible as the car was only in the two seat configuration as it was not possible to lift the two rear seats due to being full at the rear,my friend said that she wanted to continue speaking to us and said hang on until I get back,then for some odd reason I said that I would like some fresh air and said why dont I walk down with her to the school with her to pick up the children ? so thats what we did waiting as many other people do every day outside the school gates for the first child,and then around the corner to pick up the younger one from the nursery school,just as we came out of the school gates we hovered by the roadside chatting to some of her friends,there were lots of people around all wanting to pick up their children and wanting to get home for tea,soon I was aware of a white Ford Transit van which was tearing by at an estimated speed of 50 mph,as it passed by our side the small 4 year old child started to wander alongside the kerb parallel to the passing vehicle,then suddenly without warning and to my horror the child wandered into the road oblivious to the speeding vehicle,obviously more concerned with the sweets that he was going to receive down the local newsagents,a route that he takes every day with his mum,I witnessed him as he walked straight into the path of the moving vehicle and as he did so the van braked hard and the front suspension went down violently as the young lad continued to move forward,just at that moment I saw a small pair of Angels wings appear from his left shoulder and a I witnessed a small Angels hand appear in front of the vehicle which stopped the vehicle dead in its tracks,at the same time there was a distinct smell of burning rubber,the small Guardian Angel appeared so quickly and vanished within seconds as it did its ultimate job,the vehicle had stopped with one foot of the lad,he stood dazed in the middle of the road as his mum grabbed him,she then read the riot act to the very rude driver of the vehicle.
Now here are some stopping distances for vehicles gleaned from a site on the internet-

SPEED +
THINKING DISTANCE=
BRAKING DISTANCE
20 mph
20 ft. (6 m) 20 ft. (6 m)
30 mph
30 ft. (9 m) 45 ft. (14 m)
40 mph
40 ft. (12 m)80 ft. (24 m)
50 mph
50 ft. (15 m) 125ft. (38 m) **
60 mph
60 ft. (18 m) 180 ft. (55 m)
70 mph
70 ft. (21 m) 245 ft. (75 m)

So at the estimated speed of 50 mph you will see that the vehicle would stop in a distance of some 38 metres ! even if the estimated speed was somewhere like 40 mph it would still be a crushing 24 metres.
But is was just as if a steel wall had been placed before the van and it stopped dead in its tracks,there is no doubt whatsoever in my mind that the little Angel had stopped the vehicle to save the boy from being flattened,Angels must be immensly strong to stop a vehicle travelling at such speeds,thankfully the 4 year old had his Guardian Angel on his side today,and I witnessed first hand an Angel in action,albeit for a few split seconds performing a miracle.
This experience is embedded in my mind for ever more,thank you dear Angel for saving that young lads life,perhaps one day I can relate to him how lucky he really was.

This event certainly warrants retelling at the next Angel workshop.
Looking forward to it
