Saint Camillus De Lellis – 

Many people are like bruised reeds. They have been bumped around by society. They have been hurt by family. They have been betrayed by friends. They have been battered physically or emotionally. They are hurting. And Jesus like his Father takes care of these wounded ones. He is tender, he is merciful. He wants to heal and to save the hurting person. He will not snuff out that person or treat them with indifference. “A bruised reed he will not crush.”
