How was the 70th miraculous healing at Lourdes actually investigated?

🔥The question: “Isn't Sister Bernadette Moriau's story just her own testimony too?”

🛡️The Church's answer: According to the official Lourdes records, Sister Moriau had been under treatment for a long-standing spinal and nerve condition and reported a marked recovery after a pilgrimage to Lourdes in 2008. Over several years the Lourdes Medical Bureau and the International Medical Committee examined the diagnostic records, the treatment and its course, and how lasting the recovery was. After the medical judgment, the Bishop of Beauvais, the ordinary with jurisdiction, declared it the 70th miraculous healing of Lourdes on February 11, 2018.

📜What the Church has actually recognized: The Church's declaration rests on long-term medical records and review, not only on how she felt, but this single case doesn't prove how every illness is healed or validate every experience at Lourdes.

🧐If they press further: “So can anyone check the diagnosis and the committee's opinion?” — Not all of the raw records are published, because of the patient's privacy. So check the official procedure and the committee's account that are public, but don't exaggerate as though you had seen documents you can't see.

✨In one sentence: “Sister Moriau's case was declared by the bishop with jurisdiction in 2018 after years of medical review. It wasn't recognized on one person's testimony alone.”
