Saint Peregrine Laziosi, born around 1260–1265 in Forlì, Italy, was a Servite friar whose dramatic conversion and miraculous cancer cure made him the patron saint of cancer patients. A rebellious youth in a Ghibelline family, he opposed the Church until, at 30, he struck a papal envoy—Saint Philip Benizi—only to repent at Philip’s forgiveness, joining the Servites c. 1295. Ordained a priest, he served in silence and penance, but at 60, a cancerous leg ulcer led him to pray before a crucifix; Christ appeared, healing him instantly. He died on May 1, 1345, at about 80–85, his sanctity already renowned.
