Sciatica: Scourge of Holy Men

Posted on March 15, 2020May 12, 2020 by Krista

I love the story in the article about the Roman physician who connected sciatica with Jacob and told Cardinal Bergoglio he was destined to change his name. I’m sure his comment was a little bit tongue-in-cheek, and surely not everyone with sciatica received it from an angel’s touch. Still, it’s a delightful story.
