'''Saint Lydwine of Schiedam''', born on March 18, 1380, in Schiedam, Holland, was a mystic and victim soul whose lifelong suffering became a testament to redemptive pain. At 15, a skating accident fractured her ribs, triggering a cascade of ailments—gangrene, ulcers, and paralysis—that confined her to bed for 38 years. Embracing her agony as a gift, she experienced visions of Christ, Mary, and angels, often in ecstasy, and reportedly survived on minimal food, even the Eucharist alone. Her home became a pilgrimage site, drawing figures like Thomas à Kempis, who chronicled her in *The Life of Lidwina*. She died on April 14, 1433, at 53, her body exuding a sweet scent, a sign of sanctity. | '''Saint Lydwine of Schiedam''', born on March 18, 1380, in Schiedam, Holland, was a mystic and victim soul whose lifelong suffering became a testament to redemptive pain.
