A baby's brain tumor, which cannot be operated on, reportedly reduced in size following a kiss on the head from the Pope, at least that's what the family thinks.
Pope Francis kissed one-year-old Gianna in September, during a papal procession in Philadelphia, CBS Philadelphia reported. The girl's mother, Kristen Masciantonio, told the television station: 'She's getting better and stronger. She's blowing kisses. She's starting to point at things.'
The girl's parents Joey and Kristen Masciantonio have reportedly described the kiss as a miracle.
A comparison of Gianna's MRIs from August and November shows a noticeable difference.
According to the television station, the girl's brain stem had been 'attacked' by the toddler's blood cells.
CBS Philadelphia reported the toddler has a sibling named Dominic -- and the first name of the bodyguard who hoisted the girl up during the kiss .
Gianna met the daughter of St. Gianna, her namesake, while the pope was in Philadelphia, CBS Philadelphia reported.
Joey Masciantonio told the television station: 'Last year was about living in honor of her.
'Now we're going to get to live with her.'
He also said: 'I think this is all from God.
'I believe the Pope is a messenger from God.'
