“No one showed up; only my guardian Angel does not cease to watch over me, to in­struct me and to give me wise counsel. Many times during the day he re­veals himself to me and talks to me. Yesterday he kept me company while I ate but he didn't force me like the others do. After I had eaten, I didn't feel at all well so he brought me a cup of coffee so good that I was healed in­stantly and then he made me rest a little.”   St. Gemma Galgani, Diary, Monday, August 20, 1900
