I invite you to get to know her: her life was short, but it&#8217;s a wonderful message. Chiara was born in 1971 and died in 1990, because of an incurable illness. Nineteen years full of life, of love, of faith. Two years, the last ones, also filled with pain and suffering, but always in love and light, a light that shone around her, and that came from within: from her heart filled with God! How can this be? How can a girl of 17, 18 years live a suffering like this, without any kind of human hope, spreading love, serenity, peace, faith? Obviously, this is a grace from God, but this grace was also prepared and accompanied by human collaboration: the collaboration of Chiara herself, certainly, but also of her parents and her friends

children, but we had to wait 11 years. Ruggero could not conceive a marriage without children, and when he was with friends who had children, he suffered a lot; but he continued to pray, even on the truck during his long work trips. Once again he asked for the grace in a shrine of our diocese and so it happened. With her birth, we immediately felt in our hearts that Chiara was not only our daughter, but first she was God\u2019s child and, as such, we had to raise her respecting her freedom. With her arrival, we felt the grace of the sacrament of marriage more deeply: this daughter completed our union and increased the love between us.<\/p><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b15fe67 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b15fe67\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Chiara was born in a simple family.

\/>Rome: the discovery that &#8220;God loves us immensely&#8221;, will profoundly<br \/>affect her relationships with her family, but also those with her<br \/>friends and classmates.<\/p><blockquote><p>\u201cWe started our adventure, with the Gospel under our arms we will do great things\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote><div>Chiara and her friend Chicca wrote to Chiara Lubich, beginning their<br \/>journey as gen (the youthful expression of the Focolare Movement).<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>Each point of the Focolare spirituality became an inspiration for<br \/>Chiara: both to direct her first important choices to solve daily large<br \/>and small problems discovering the infinite wonders of the Gospel<br \/>brought to life.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>Chiara was fascinated by the fraternity among the<br \/>members of the Movement, by its universality, and the effort of its<br \/>members to make the evangelical teachings concrete.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><h4>Some time later, she wrote:<\/h4><blockquote><p>I have rediscovered the Gospel.., I was not an authentic Christian because I did not live it fully. I won\u2019t and cannot remain illiterate of such an extraordinary message. Now I want to make this wonderful book the only goal of my life.<\/p><\/blockquote><p>On June 17, 1983, at her first Gen3 Congress, together with many other girls from around the world, she grabbed a pen and paper and wrote to Chiara Lubich:<\/p><blockquote><p>This was the first Congress for me and, I must say, it was a wonderful experience. I have rediscovered Jesus Forsaken in a special way. \u00a0I felt him in every neighbor that passes me by.<\/p><\/blockquote><h4>Chicca recalls:<\/h4><blockquote><p>I think that a video of Chiara Lubich that was shown to us when we were still little kids was a turning point for us. At a certain point Chiara Lubich opened her heart as she answered a question from some of the Gen. She confided her secret to us: Jesus Forsaken. And she invited everyone who wanted to choose Him as the \u2018first spouse\u2019 of their lives, to raise their hands. And Chiaretta did it, like me and many others\u2014right away, with a momentum that I can still feel today.<\/p><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-06b6b8a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"06b6b8a\" data-element_type=\"section\" id=\"adolescenza\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;_id&quot;:&quot;453ed46&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_tablet&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_mobile&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_speed&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:50,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_type&quot;:&quot;scroll&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_direction&quot;:null,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_fx_direction&quot;:null,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_z_index&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_animation_prop&quot;:&quot;transform&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_on&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;]}],&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-custom\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-04890e9\" data-id=\"04890e9\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-27385ff elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"27385ff\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Adolescence<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ac72077 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ac72077\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Beyond her remarkable spiritual sensitivity, Chiara was a girl like any other: cheerful, lively, outgoing and reserved all at the same time.

I asked her: &#8220;Have you lost your watch? No &#8211; she says &#8211; I put it in the basket for the communion of goods to be allocated to the poor\u201d. I was amazed and I told her that we could not buy another one and calmly, she replied: &#8220;It doesn\u2019t matter\u201d, and didn\u2019t think about it again. After a short time, her paternal grandfather, who wanted to give her a present, asked if she had a watch. Without giving any further explanation, she said no. Then he gave her the money, saying: &#8220;With this go and buy yourself a watch.&#8221; When he left, Chiara and I looked at each other and she said to me: &#8220;Mom, my watch has come back&#8221;.

during a tennis<br \/>match with friends. At first the doctors thought it was a broken rib and<br \/>they prescribed injections. But the problem didn\u2019t go away, and when<br \/>the doctors analyze the situation more closely, the verdict leaves<br \/>hardly any hope: osteogenic sarcoma with metastases.<\/p><p>In february 1989, Chiara underwent her first surgery in Turin.<\/p><div>Twenty days later, during a specialist visit at the Regina Margherita<br \/>Children\u2019s hospital, the doctor informs Chiara of her illness.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><p>Her mother would have wanted to go with her, but she was forced to stay<br \/>in bed at the house so generously made available during chemo treatments<br \/>by a family unknown to them until then, because of a sudden and<br \/>dangerous phlebitis.<\/p><h4>La mamma ricorda:<\/h4><blockquote><p>\u201cI was waiting for her, but minutes passed, and then became hours, until<br \/>I saw her coming back through the large picture window in my room: she<br \/>was walking very slowly, with her green coat, her hands in her pockets,<br \/>and her father right behind her. As soon as she opens the door, I asked<br \/>her: \u201cHow did it go, Chiara?\u201d; but with a somber face, without looking<br \/>at me, she replied: \u201cDon\u2019t speak now \u2013 twice \u2013 don\u2019t speak now\u201d.\u00a0 And<br \/>she lets herself fall on the bed, just as she was.<br \/>That silence was terrible, there was so much I wanted to say to her.\u00a0 \u201cYou\u2019ll see&#8230;maybe&#8230; you\u2019re young&#8230;\u201d but I felt that I needed to respect what she had asked me.<br \/>I watched her: her eyes were closed, but from the expression on her face I could see the struggle she was battling inside. She had said her Yes to God many times, but in happiness, now she had to say it in her greatest suffering, but she couldn\u2019t do it. There was a small clock on the shelf above her bed.\u00a0 After twenty-five minutes, which to me seemed unending, she turned to me and said: \u201cMom, now you can talk, now you can talk&#8230;\u201d I was thinking: \u201cJesus, Chiara has now said her yes, but how many times will she have to say it, and how many times will she fall?\u201d. It took Chiara twenty-five minutes to say her yes, but she never turned back\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote><p>After her first chemo sessions, she almost immediately lost the use of her legs.\u00a0 One day she asked Maria Teresa:<em> \u201cMom, will I not walk again? I loved riding my bike so much&#8230;\u201d <\/em>And she answered:<em> \u201cDon\u2019t worry, if Jesus took away your legs, he will give you wings\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-32ae505 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"32ae505\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1eb81ad elementor-arrows-position-inside elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-carousel\" data-id=\"1eb81ad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;slides_to_show&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;navigation&quot;:&quot;arrows&quot;,&quot;pause_on_hover&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;effect&quot;:&quot;fade&quot;,&quot;autoplay&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;pause_on_interaction&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;autoplay_speed&quot;:5000,&quot;infinite&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;speed&quot;:500}\" data-widget_type=\"image-carousel.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel-wrapper swiper-container\" dir=\"ltr\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel swiper-wrapper\" aria-live=\"off\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"1 of 2\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chiarabadano.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/CL-1500x2000-malattia02-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"CL-1500x2000-malattia02\" \/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"2 of 2\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chiarabadano.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/CL-1500x2000-malattia03-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"CL-1500x2000-malattia03\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-swiper-button elementor-swiper-button-prev\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"eicon-chevron-left\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-swiper-button elementor-swiper-button-next\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"eicon-chevron-right\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5a6cf36 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"5a6cf36\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ebfbcd elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2ebfbcd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>In the meantime, the feeling of death makes way and becomes more vivid:<\/p><blockquote><p><em>\u201c<\/em><em><em>Mom, is it right to die at 17?<\/em>\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote><p>she asked her one day.\u00a0 And Maria Teresa:<\/p><blockquote><p><em>\u201c<\/em><em><em>I don\u2019t know.

The doctors are not sure<br \/>about whether to let her die or give her a transfusion; her parents are<br \/>lost, in the midst of this doubt, not able to understand what is best<br \/>for their daughter. Soon after, it was the doctors who decided to<br \/>continue the treatment. Chiara will live one more year. More months that<br \/>will prove decisive for her.<\/p><p>Although immobile, Chiara is always very active: the small phone in her<br \/>room becomes the essential instrument through which new life would<br \/>circulate, along with her soul\u2019s intuitions, and communications of<br \/>feelings of closeness. In that period Chiara Lubich proposes to the<br \/>youth of the entire world a new international movement and in the<br \/>founding congress of the Youth for a United World, her words resonate<br \/>and leave their mark even the hospital where Chiara is confined to her<br \/>bed:<\/p><blockquote><p><em>\u201c<\/em><em>That suffering (by Jesus on the cross), that pain to redeem the world, was necessary \u2013 <\/em>said Chiara Lubich<em><br \/>\u2013 Our suffering is necessary to build a united world too (&#8230;) To live<br \/>for half measures is too little for a young person who has only one<br \/>life: something great is necessary&#8230; God is proposing something great<br \/>to you: it\u2019s up to you to accept it<\/em><em>\u201d<\/em>.<\/p><\/blockquote><p>It is the experience that Chiara Luce is living; so she continues to<br \/>live and offer every new challenge making herself available in thousands<br \/>of ways. Thanks to the cable antenna that was mounted on her house, she<br \/>is able to follow the live broadcast of the Genfest (an event with<br \/>youth from all over the world that was held in Rome in May 1990). Africa<br \/>too is always in her heart: she gives the money she received for her<br \/>18th birthday to a friend who was about to leave for Benin: <em>\u201cI don\u2019t need it, I have everything\u201d<\/em>, she comments<span style=\"font-style: inherit; color: var( --e-global-color-text );\">.<\/span><\/p><p>Chiara lives everything with simplicity and with others, with an impressive depth: in that little bedroom mystical and sacred become the daily normal, and the ordinary becomes an extraordinary sacrality. She usually says very little about her illness, she doesn\u2019t keep a diary, but she communicates serenity, peace and joy to anyone who comes near her. Simply stated, Chiara continues to love: her parents, the doctors and nurses, her friends&#8230; Even when \u2013 as she will later write to Chiara Lubich<em> \u2013 \u201c<b>medicine has surrendered its weapons<\/b><\/em><em><strong>\u201d<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2ccd26f\" data-id=\"2ccd26f\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-242acb1 elementor-arrows-position-inside elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-carousel\" data-id=\"242acb1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;slides_to_show&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;navigation&quot;:&quot;arrows&quot;,&quot;pause_on_hover&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;effect&quot;:&quot;fade&quot;,&quot;autoplay&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;pause_on_interaction&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;autoplay_speed&quot;:5000,&quot;infinite&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;speed&quot;:500}\" data-widget_type=\"image-carousel.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel-wrapper swiper-container\" dir=\"ltr\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-carousel swiper-wrapper\" aria-live=\"off\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"1 of 4\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chiarabadano.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ospedale.jpg\" alt=\"ospedale\" \/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"2 of 4\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chiarabadano.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/canti-malata.jpg\" alt=\"canti malata\" \/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"3 of 4\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chiarabadano.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/CL-1500x2000-malattia01-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"CL-1500x2000-malattia01\" \/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"swiper-slide\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"4 of 4\"><figure class=\"swiper-slide-inner\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"swiper-slide-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chiarabadano.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/CL-1500x2000-malattia04-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"CL-1500x2000-malattia04\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-swiper-button elementor-swiper-button-prev\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"eicon-chevron-left\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-swiper-button elementor-swiper-button-next\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"eicon-chevron-right\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7d09840 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"7d09840\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-588fe55 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"588fe55\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4>Maria Teresa continues:<\/h4><blockquote><p>\u201cI remember that when we left Turin for Sassello, we stopped at a<br \/>highway reststop like we normally did. Chiara, who would usually go with<br \/>her father to get something, started to automatically get out of the<br \/>car, but she realized she could no longer do it, and with a normal tone<br \/>she said: \u201cOh yeah! I can\u2019t walk anymore&#8230;\u201d At those words I felt like I<br \/>was dying, and since I was sitting behind her, I reached forward and<br \/>put my hands on her shoulders and squeezed them, trying to suffocate my own pain\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote><h4>And dad Ruggero adds:<\/h4><blockquote><p>\u201cCertainly she offered this pain to Jesus as well, such a precious moment<br \/>because there, in that moment she realized that she would never walk<br \/>again. This is something that struck me, because that was a very<br \/>difficult moment for us too; but seeing how she lived through it, we<br \/>couldn\u2019t stay at our human level, made of sadness and worries for the<br \/>future, because she always wanted to stay in that dimension we could<br \/>define as human-divine, and she wanted to stay there with us.<br \/>What always helped us in those years was the presence of Jesus among us, trying to offer Him this suffering, the only way we knew how, the three<br \/>of us together, and each of us on our own: so that He would give us the<br \/>strength.\u00a0 And there was a serenity, a way of living in a supernatural<br \/>dimension: certain things happen, and you can\u2019t understand them well.<br \/>But thinking back today we have to admit that for our family those were<br \/>the two years most blessed by God: because Jesus allowed us to live<br \/>something truly extraordinary, so extraordinary that we\u2019re not able to<br \/>explain it\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote><p>In June Chiara undergoes a second surgery: there is barely any hope. The<br \/>hospital stays in Turin become more frequent.

Ruggero signals to<br \/>me to stay silent because Chiara seemed to have just fallen asleep. I<br \/>leaned on the wall, next to her, her face so pale that she seemed dead<br \/>already. I watch her in silence, but she had apparently realized that<br \/>her mom had arrived, and with a huge struggle, she tried to smile at me.<br \/>So I asked her what had happened, and she replied: \u201cEverything, mom!<br \/>Everything! But you know, I didn\u2019t waste a thing, not even \u2013 putting her<br \/>thumb and index finger together \u2013 not even this much pain. I offered<br \/>everything to Jesus\u201d. So I turned to Ruggero and we really felt, looking<br \/>at each other, that we should have kneeled in front of this daughter of<br \/>ours: to admire and thank God for the wonders He was making in her soul\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote><p>In another moment of particular physical suffering she confided to her mother:<\/p><blockquote><p><em>\u201c<\/em><em>Jesus removes my stains with bleach to remove even blackheads,<br \/>bleach burns.
