Lentorama 2006 Saint of the Day: St. Matrona

I feel like I should have used the plural here, as there are three women listed as St. Matronia. One was the Christian maid of a Thessalonican woman put through tribulations when her mistress learned she was Christian. Another was from Barcelona, but was taken to Rome and executed when she was found ministering to prisoners. The final one was Portuguese, but was supernaturally told to go to Italy to cure her dysentery. She died there, and is now the patron saint of people with dysentery (and good luck to them, based on that story).

The entry I'm going off of makes it sound like they've rolled all three of these women into one saint, which seems a little fishy. There also appear to be two other Sts. Matrona with different days. Good luck keeping them straight.
