Kevin Wells, nephew of murdered Msgr. Thomas Wells, suffered a brain aneurysm that hemorrhaged for a week. The pressure split his skull with unbearable pain. Multiple shunt attempts failed, and deep brain surgery to reach the arteriovenous malformation also failed. Doctors gave him only days to live. Hospital chaplain Fr. Bill detected demonic oppression in the room. Kevin's wife held a consecrated Host over him while praying. When given Last Rites by Fr. Stack (Msgr. Wells's best friend), Kevin unconsciously asked for his uncle Tommy to intercede. Fr. Stack called on his deceased friend and suddenly a benevolent fire filled the room with lights everywhere. Fr. Stack felt the whole heavenly court surrounding the bed with overwhelming warmth. Assistant Mary Pat felt powerful pleasant pulsing through her body. Kevin experienced sustained palpable warmth in chest and abdomen. The next day's angiogram showed the AVM had completely vanished - all errant blood flow stopped and trapped fluids disappeared. Two friends witnessed Kevin point to corner saying "Look, it's the Lady of Guadalupe." Complete miraculous healing followed.
