April 28 is the feast day of St. Gianna Beretta Molla (1922-1962): doctor, wife, and mother who chose to continue with her fourth pregnancy, despite knowing that having this child could result in her own death, which it did. She is considered to be part of the Vincentian Family because in her younger years she served among the elderly and needy as a member of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul.
