I have suffered much in this way during the whole of my life, and particularly when I was at the convent, from having unsuitable remedies administered to me.
Often, when my doctors and nurses had reduced me to the last agony, and that I was near death, God took pity on me, and sent me some supernatural assistance, which effected an entire cure.' Four years before the suppression of her convent she went to Flamske for two days to visit her parents.

Whilst there she went once to kneel and pray for some hours before the miraculous Cross of the Church of St.Lambert, at Coesfeld.

She besought the Almighty to bestow the gifts of peace and unity upon her convent, offered him the Passion of Jesus Christ for that intention, and implored him to allow her to feel a portion of the sufferings which were endured by her Divine Spouse on the Cross.

From the time that she made this prayer her hands and feet became burning and painful, and she suffered constantly from fever, which she believed was the cause of the pain in her hands and feet, for she did not dare to think that her prayer had been granted.

Often she was unable to walk, and the pain in her hands prevented her from working as usual in the garden.
