Biography
Saint Antoinette (+1472) This Italian saint married and was widowed twice. She later joined the Poor Clares of Florence, her hometown. She had to suffer a lot because of her son, a scoundrel who never stopped tormenting her, but in exchange, she received great consolations from heaven. Its director, the famous Juan de Capistrano, placed her in charge of the Corpus Christi convent in Aquila. There he undertook intense reform work, and there he ended his days in peace.
