Were you surfing Dona Ana, Lagos on July 4th?
I was vacationing in Lagos with my family. We are from Canada. When we got to Dona Ana beach the waves were high but my three boys wanted to go in.
I warned them about the riptide but two of them were pulled out. It happened so quickly.
I went after them and managed to get a hold of one. The other was swept away. I thought I had lost him.
When I was helped back to shore my wife was screaming that they had him. I could not believe it. It was a miracle! My son was on a surf board and was saved!
A surfer had rescued him just before he went under.
I have never been so grateful in all of my life but I could not thank him properly because he was back to the surf as soon as he had seen my son to safety.
This man is a true hero and thought nothing of what he had done.
The surfer seemed to be local and I just want to try to track this man down.
I have to get word to this person as to how much I appreciate that I have my son safely back here in Montreal because of him. Thank you - obrigado!
