Covid-Cardinal Saw Our Lady While Being in Intensive Care

Perugia Cardinal Gualtiero Bassetti celebrated a February 16 Thanksgiving Mass at Our Lady of Comfort in Arezzo, Italy, after he recovered from a Covid-19 infection.

Afterwards, he told journalist that Covid-19 is like “a swamp,” that in ICU he was near the end, and that he entrusted himself to Our Lady of Comfort. While in intensive care, Bassetti even saw Our Lady of Comfort “transfigured: so beautiful, so bright, so smiling I had never seen her before.”

“I could have gone to purgatory, as so many have gone to purgatory because of this terrible illness,” Bassetti admitted without taking in consideration the possibility of going to hell although hell is much better attested in the Gospel than purgatory and even Francis alluding to this possibility.

However, “Providence wanted me to stay here. This still touches me,” an emotional Cardinal confessed.

Bassetti even saw Our Lady of Comfort. No evidence of this beyond the Cardinal's own say-so. The Church hasn't approved this Marian apparition.

You're going to be in for an awful shock when you realize most abortions have been promoted and executed by people who are NOT Jews @Gaius Caesar Germanicus But, hey, don't let a mere facts stand in the way of your bias. :P

It's gratifying that he mentions Purgatory. IMHO, belief in Purgatory is the measure of the health of the Church because it includes both God's Mercy ad His Justice.
Purgatory, said Anglican Dr Johnson, is just common sense.More
