Guerrero treated eight children that day — four of them are his regular patients.

He lost five of his patients.

So tragic. Had the children been rescued sooner, he might have saved more. Dr. Guerrero himself will need counseling, and I hope he receives it. The entire community will be traumatized by this for years to come. It has to stop.
