    Following a stroke in 2001 and a series of health setbacks, many imagined that the story of the most famous nun in America was over. Confined to her cell in a protracted silence for over a decade, Mother Angelica would struggle for her soul, fight for her religious community, see the fulfillment of her last mission, and radically transform the lives of people she had never known.

    "What follows is the conclusion of Mother's biography, a synopsis of her life leading up to this work, my personal account of our loving friendship, and a tribute to a cherished spiritual icon. Long ago, Mother made me promise to 'tell the full story' of her life. This is the final chapter in that story, one that is as sterling and inspiring as everything that preceded it." -Raymond Arroyo
