(Vatican Radio) The Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes which falls on the 11th of February
coincides with the day we mark the World Day of the Sick . Join Monsignor Peter Fleetwood
as he shares with us a visit to Lourdes with his sick mother many years ago : "..I
can honestly say that the miracles of the 1850's become distant memories when one
sees the recurring miracles at Lourdes today..many times in the course of my work
I am tempted to say , 'why bother staying here?'...My own frustrations paled into
insignificance on that special pilgrimage." ... A programme produced by Veronica
Scarisbrick for the series: "Why Bother ? Staying Catholic despite it all..."
