Miracle in Manhattan
A miracle which jolted the
imagination of America
In Greenwich
village on the east side of Manhattan Mother Teresa opened a
hospice care for the aids victims whose family and friends had shunned them
leaving them to face an inevitable and agonizing death.
Mother Teresa met them in
their cell and looking at their condition, she immediately took action, she contacted
the then New York Governor Mario Cuomo and pleaded to him to release the
prisoners and let these men die in peace.
Governor Cuomo had received
several appeals in the past to release these prisoners due to their failing
health conditions, but he had refused. But on hearing a plea from Mother
Teresa, the unshakeable Governor Cuomo had a change of heart and within 24
hours signed a release order, releasing the prisoners. The 3 prisoners were
immediately transferred to Manhattan
hospital temporarily and then transferred to a new hospice care which Mother
Teresa set up for them.
