Sister Marguerite Dynski – Nun, Cancer Survivor, Paraplegic, Doctor

by Sister Julie on October 17, 2008

Sister Marguerite Dynski is a Catholic nun, cancer survivor, paraplegic, and doctor. She belongs to the Sisters of Saint Joseph in Rochester, New York. Her story is described a bit in an interview the ABC TV channel 13 in Rochester.

The interview comes shortly after Marguerite’s participation in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk. There are many such walks, runs, fund-raisers and other events this month as October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Check out the video of Sister Marguerite by clicking on the photo to the right (the link takes you to the channel 13 website where you can see the video). Even though it’s a short segment, I felt such a light and peace coming from this Sister. Next time I’m home to visit my family in Rochester (my home town), I’ll have to look up Sister Marguerite and see if she’ll do an interview for us here at A Nun’s Life!
