Dismas is believed to have had a previous meeting with our [[Lord]] on the [[Holy Family]]'s flight to [[Egypt]]. It is said that Dismas was very sick and the [[Blessed Virgin]] bathed him in the same water as the [[Holy Child]] and Dismas was healed. This story maybe a foreshadowing of how [[Jesus]] would heal Dismas' soul before his death so that he could enjoy eternal life. | Dismas is believed to have had a previous meeting with our [[Lord]] on the [[Holy Family]]'s flight to [[Egypt]].
