Over the last two decades of her life, Mother Teresa suffered various health problems but nothing could dissuade her from fulfilling her mission of serving the poor and needy.Until her very last illness she was active in travelling around the world.
Finally, on September 5, 1997, after finishing her dinner and prayers, her weakened heart gave her back to the God.
