Known as patrons of physicians, pharmacists, and the sick, Saints Cosmas and Damian (Cosme y Damián) are revered for their selflessness and dedication to helping others. Cosmas and Damian were born in Arabia (modern-day Syria) during the 3rd century AD. They were raised as devout Christians and later became skilled physicians. Known as the "unmercenaries," they practiced medicine without charging for their services, earning them widespread respect and devotion. They believed their healing abilities were gifts from God, and they used them to help the poor and sick without seeking personal gain.
The twins were said to perform miraculous healings, often combining their medical knowledge with their deep faith. Stories recount them curing illnesses that others deemed impossible to heal, always attributing their success to the power of Christ. Numerous miracles are attributed to the saints even after their death. They are said to have appeared in dreams, healed the sick, and performed other acts of intercession for those who prayed to them.
