Another
inexplicable healing obtained through the intercession of Luisa Piccarreta where
the protagonist, this time, is one of Luisa’s fellow citizens.
The testimony is
given directly by the person who experienced it and met Luisa during her
illness. The event in fact takes place in the first half of the '30s when Mrs.
L.M .was only three years old.
In full
possession of her physical and mental abilities Mrs. L. remembers clearly what
she learned from the story of her mother while she was alive and now, by a
written document, she tells it our Association Little Children of the Divine
Will for the collection of various statements of healing in favour of which
Luisa interceded.
The story is as
follows: when L. was very small, suddenly
a swelling of considerable size was formed under her tongue and her parents took
her to a surgeon.
The doctor said that
she urgently need a surgical intervention so
he fixed the surgery date. The girl was too little and for this reason her
mother was scared and worried.
Perhaps it is no
coincidence that her maternal grandmother had some relatives of Piccarreta as
neighbors, in fact they after hearing
the story and seeing the desperation of the young mother, suggested her taking
the little girl to Luisa.
Luisa advised
them not to operate on the little girl, but to entrust her to Saints Cosmas and
Damian (medical saints) sure of their
intercession, showing clearly her own devotion toward all the saints to whom, as
a child, she addressed her prayers.
That very night from
the little girl's mouth began to come out a kind of drool and the swelling began
lowly to decrease until it disappeared altogether and didn’t occur anymore: the
little girl was totally healed and grew very well.
At the end of
her testimony, Ms L. wrote: "My mother told me that through the
intercession of Luisa Piccarreta I received a miracle. From then until her death
my mother was devoted to Luisa, and the
Medical Saints; after her, I too!
".
A new miracle was
accomplished thanks to the intercession of Luisa "The Holy" while she was still alive. There are in fact some events that happened
proving the "gift of foresight" that Luisa had and they are described
well in the Official Biography " The Sun of My Will", as well as it
is not unusual her intercession in favour of little children toward whom she showed
a special tenderness.
Many are those
who still retain a sweet childhood memory of Luisa for having visited her with
their own grandparents or parents, not always to receive a miracle, but for the
simple love with which she used to welcome little children.
FIAT!
