canders7 "Once, when severely ill, he had a vision of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Augustine of Hippo and Monica. They told him to eat a certain type of roll that had been dipped in water. Cured, he began healing others by administering bread over which he recited Marian prayers. The rolls became known as Saint Nicholas Bread, and are still distributed at his shrine. Reported to have resurrected over one hundred dead children, including several who had drowned together." (More on Saint Nicholas from SQPN).
