"Her life story can speak to the modern age unlike so many other saints."  Well said, Shawn.  That was one of my reactions, too.  I was inspired by the faults because it made me realize that we must do what we feel called to do in spite of such faults and short comings.  I'm sure that the saints of old had their faults and sins but the biographers didn't tell that part of the story.  Today we tell all.
