Then, suddenly, he regains tactile sensitivity and can move again. At the moment he does not dare to stand up… On the following night, an inner voice repeats to him: “Get up and walk”, which Jean Pierre Bély does. Subsequently, he enjoys perfect health while social institutions continue to consider him always totally invalid. He emphasizes: "the Lord healed first my heart and then my body". After twelve years of medical investigations, Mons. Claude Dagens, bishop of Angoulême, following a favorable opinion from a canonical commission, declares that this healing is "an effective sign of Christ the Savior, which was accomplished through the intercession of Our Lady of Lourdes ".

Sister Luigina Traverso was born on August 22, 1934 in Novi Ligure (Piedmont), Italy, on the feast day of Maria Regina. He is not yet 30 when he feels the first symptoms of paralysis of the left leg. After several failed surgeries on the spine, in the early 60s, the nun, forced to stay in bed regularly, asked the Mother Superior of her community for permission to make a pilgrimage to Lourdes; she left at the end of July 1965. on 23 July while participating, on a stretcher, in the Eucharist, at the passage of the Blessed Sacrament, she feels a strong sensation of warmth and well-being that pushes her to get up.

Danila CASTELLI
Born on January 16, 1946, Danila Castelli, wife and mother of a family, had a normal life, up to 34 years old, when she began to suffer from serious spontaneous hypertensive crises. In
1982, radiological and ultrasound examinations revealed a para-uterine mass and a fibromatous uterus. Danila then underwent a hysterectomy and adnexectomy. In November 1982, she underwent a partial removal of the pancreas (partial pancreatectomy). A scintigraphy confirmed, the following year, the presence of "pheochromocytoma" (a tumor producing catecholamines) in the rectal, bladder and vaginal area. Several surgical procedures were then carried out until 1988, in the hope of eliminating the points that cause hypertensive crises, but to no avail. In May 1989, during a pilgrimage to Lourdes, Danila comes out of the sanctuary pools where she has been bathed and feels an extraordinary well-being.
Shortly thereafter he declares his instant recovery to the Lourdes Medical Assessment Bureau. After five meetings (1989, 1992, 1994, 1997 and 2010) the Bureau declares the healing through a formal and unanimous vote: "Mrs. Castelli is healed, in a complete and lasting way, after her pilgrimage to Lourdes in 1989, 21 years ago, from the syndrome he suffered from, and this without any relationship with the interventions and therapies he underwent “. Danila Castelli has since returned to a completely normal life. The CMIL (International Medical Commission of Lourdes), in its meeting of November 19, 2011 in Paris certified "that the modalities of healing remain inexplicable in the current state of scientific knowledge." On 20 June 2013, Mons. Giovanni Giudici, bishop of the diocese of Pavia (Italy), where Danila Castelli lives, recognized the "prodigious-miraculous" character, and the "sign" value of this healing. This is the 69th healing of Lourdes recognized as miraculous by a bishop.

These are the last four stories of extraordinary healings that took place in Lourdes.
Luc Montagnier, director of the Pasteur Institute, discoverer of the HIV virus and winner of the 2008 Nobel Prize in Medicine wrote:
“Regarding the miracles of Lourdes that I have studied, I actually believe that it is something that cannot be explained. I do not explain these miracles, but I recognize that there are healings not understood in the current state of science "

In 150 years, some 7 unexplained healings have been recognized, although only 67 of these have been recognized by the Catholic Church as miracles. »
Among others, Dr. Giulio Tarro intervened on the subject, providing some personal observations to contest purely statistical evaluations:
“Undoubtedly, the spontaneous remission of neoplasms is a phenomenon, unfortunately rare, but known for decades by medicine; the cases of spontaneous remission, however, "normally" concern single tumor masses not already frightening metastases spread throughout the body with the consequent destruction of healthy tissues. The three healings examined in Lourdes concern precisely this last clinical picture ”.
