+===Saint Miracle 1===
+The Healing of Sister Marie Simon-Pierre Normand: Sister Marie, a French nun, suffered from Parkinson's disease, the same condition that afflicted Pope John Paul II. After his death in 2005, her fellow nuns prayed for her healing through the intercession of John Paul II. In 2007, Sister Marie reported that her symptoms had suddenly disappeared overnight, an event she and her community attributed to John Paul II's intercession. Medical experts, after examination, could not explain the sudden and complete recovery, leading the Vatican to recognize this as a miracle in 2010.
+===Saint Miracle 2===
+The Healing of Floribeth Mora Diaz: In Costa Rica, Floribeth Mora Diaz was suffering from an inoperable brain aneurysm, which was expected to be fatal. On May 1, 2011, the day of John Paul II's beatification, she watched the ceremony on television and reported feeling an overwhelming sense of well-being. She claimed that she heard the voice of John Paul II telling her to get up and not to be afraid. Subsequent medical tests showed that her aneurysm had completely disappeared, which doctors could not explain scientifically. This healing was investigated by the Church and recognized as the second miracle necessary for sainthood in 2013.
