Here’s a cool blog post (click here) by Wendy Schuman about the singer Edith Piaf, who prayed to St. Therese of Lisieux (whom she credited with curing her childhood blindness). In the movie, she hears Therese’s voice.
I’m always intrigued by other people’s devotion to this saint because she had played such an important role in my faith, and in my recovery from everything bad.

“Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien” could be the ultimate song of defiance regarding our disease. (And the Little Sparrow’s sad addictions were, one could argue, a close enough analog in her own case.)
It would be a lie in my case, of course, because I regret A LOT of things. But it would be refreshing to be able to (truthfully) have Piaf’s “Who cares what people think of me?” attitude as expressed in the song.
