In 2020, Carlo Acutis—who passed away from leukemia in 2006 at the age of 15—was beatified when it was reported that he had healed Mattheus Vianna, a Brazilian boy, of a severe birth abnormality that prevented him from swallowing food.
In February 2014, a priest and friend of Mattheus’s family reported that the youngster was “fully cured” following his touch of Carlo’s relic and his command to “stop vomiting.”
In the second miracle, a Costa Rican girl who was studying in Italy is said to have recovered from a head injury.
Avvenire, the Italian Bishops’ Conference’s (CEI) daily journal, reports that the child healed her after her mother called on her.
