In Belgium, Bois-d’Haine, the Servant of God Anne-Louise Lateau lived for twelve years without eating or drinking, and without sleeping, starting March 26, 1871. [She lived on the Eucharist alone for those twelve years.]
On January 11, 1868, she received stigmata at her feet, hands, head, the left side of her chest and her right shoulder. She lived thus conformed to our Lord until the end of her life.
On April 23, 1873, Pope Leo XIII made the following declarations regarding Anne-Louise’s case. “The Bois-d’Haine event is an extraordinary one. You can affirm on my behalf that medical science will never be able to explain such a fact.”
Anne-Louise died August 25, 1883 at age 33. In 1991, the cause for beautification was official opened.
