Urgent Question - Surgery During the Three Weeks

Question

Hello, my 3-year-old son needs to undergo a diagnostic cerebral catheterization next Wednesday. Is there any risk since it falls during the Three Weeks? Thank you

Answer

Hello 

We do not schedule anything involving danger for these days, but if it has occurred by divine providence, with God's help, everything will be fine.

Wishing a complete recovery
