CALCUTTA — Mother Teresa flew back home to India Friday after a three-month absence and stays in two hospitals, saying she felt fine.
Nuns from her Missionaries of Charity order were on hand at Calcutta’s airport to welcome her.
“I’m good, fine. God bless you,” the 81-year-old missionary nun told reporters as she walked without help through the airport terminal.
The Nobel Peace Prize-winner suffered her second heart attack two months ago on a tour of her mission in Tijuana and underwent surgery at the Scripps Clinic in San Diego.
She met Britain’s Princess Diana on Wednesday in Rome.
