UK-born, Tech-savvy Teen, Carlo Acutis, to Become First Millennial Saint

The Vatican had previously claimed the teen had posthumously interceded in 2013 to cure a Brazilian boy suffering from a rare pancreatic disease.

And on Thursday, it recognised another miracle, involving a student in Florence called Valeria.

According to the Vatican’s news outlet, Valeria suffered severe head trauma after falling off her bicycle and doctors gave her a very low chance of survival.

Her mother Liliana, from Costa Rica, made a pilgrimage to Carlo’s tomb in the Italian town of Assisi.

That same day, July 8, 2022 — six days after the accident — Valeria began to breathe on her own, Vatican News said.

And the next day, she began to move and partially regained her speech. On July 18, a CAT scan proved that her haemorrhage had disappeared.
