    Adolescence

    During her adolescence,


    Saint Thérèse experienced a
    series of tragic events. At the age
    of 15, her mother died from
    breast cancer, and shortly after,
    her family relocated to Lisieux,
    France. The difficulties did not
    end there; soon after her
    mother's passing, her father
    received a diagnosis of cerebral
    arteriosclerosis due to a stroke,

    suicidal thoughts and ultimately
    led to him being sent to an
    asylum.
    Adulthood
    Saint Thérèse of Lisieux's
    adulthood was filled with
    challenges. She had to obtain a
    special permission from the Pope
    to become a Carmelite nun due
    to her young age, showing her
    unwavering commitment to her
    faith. Amid her religious journey,
    she faced mistreatment from
    other nuns but persevered.
    Tragically, she battled
    tuberculosis privately and spent
    her final days in prayer. Thérèse's

    enduring faith and
    determination remain a lasting
    inspiration.
