From Aleteia:

aleteia.org/2017/03/11/marthe-robin-her-only-sustenance-for-more-than-50-years-was-the-holy-eucharist/

I found this particularly inspiring myself, as I work in a related medical field and have also read Oliver Sacks' wonderful book, "Awakenings", which is all about the disease Ven. Marthe Robin suffered from.

"The Church founded by the Redeemer is one, the same for all races and all nations. Beneath her dome, as beneath the vault of heaven, there is but one country for all nations and tongues; there is room for the development of every quality, advantage, task and vocation which God the Creator and Savior has allotted to individuals as well as to ethnical communities."

- Pope Pius XI, encyclical "Mit Brennender Sorge"
