Sister André, born Lucile Randon, has lived through two world wars, the 1918 influenza pandemic, and even survived a COVID-19 infection last year.
Born on Feb. 11, 1904, Sister André has survived two world wars and even a COVID-19 infection. In her younger years, she worked as a teacher and a governess. She later spent nearly three decades working with orphans and elderly people at a hospital in central France before becoming a Catholic nun, the statement said.
. French media reported that she didn’t even realize she had the virus as she had so few symptoms. Her survival made headlines both in France and beyond. "It made me very, very, very, very happy," the birthday girl said at the time, according to the Associated Press. "Because I met all those I love and I thank the heavens for giving them to me. I thank God for the trouble they went to."
Although Sister André is now partially deaf and uses a wheelchair, Guinness said she "likes to keep her mind active."
