TIMELINE OF THE PROCESS

The report, translated from Italian to English, included the discussions of the Medical Panel in a meeting held in Rome on 24 January 2008.  This was sent to the Congregation through S. Maria Carmen Yu, RVM.  The following are excerpts from the report:

“Since there is no precise semeiotic and an adequate documentation on the 1991 event (declared instant healing of Mrs. Utanes), the members of the Medical Consultation declared that they are not in  position to evaluate the cure of the 3rd finger lesion.”

“In conclusion, as expressed above, the Medical Consultation is not allowed to make a solid judgment on the unexplainability of the cure of lesion which occurred in 1991 for lack of clinical documentations contemporary to the event.”  (Dr. Enmio Ensoli and Pro. Patrizio Pollisca, 2000)

The above declaration on the status of the Cause for the beatification of Mother Ignacia challenged the RVM Sisters, more than ever to stay close to Jesus, to intensify and be persistent in their prayers.
