St’s Cosmas and Damien

The Holy Helpers.
The two physician saints are depicted here in one of their most famous posthumous miracles. They replaced the diseased leg of a man with the leg of another man who had died. It was obviously from a man of color. Hence, the worlds first leg transplant…probably not so astonishing for self-sufficient moderns, who have become accustomed to transplant surgeries. If you are going in for a transplant, I think I would pray to these two saints if I were you. If you’re waiting for a transplant, all the more reason to invoke their assistance.
Go to Don Marco’s site, “Vultus Christi” for everything you want to know about these two saints.
