The doctor behind Pope Leo’s first miracle speaks out after praying for and saving a premature infant

Pope Leo Declares His First Miracle
Pope Leo, the first American pope and successor to Pope Francis, has officially declared his first miracle. After Pope Francis passed away in April at age 88, Pope Leo was elected by the papal conclave on May 8, making history for the Catholic Church.

Miracle Linked to Father Salvador Valera Parra
This miracle involves Father Salvador Valera Parra, a Spanish priest from the 19th century. The miracle occurred in 2007 and helped advance Parra’s path to sainthood.

The Miracle: Baby Tyquan’s Survival
The miracle centers on Tyquan Hall, a premature baby born at Rhode Island Memorial Hospital. At birth, Tyquan barely had a pulse, and despite neonatal care, his condition worsened—his heart even stopped briefly.

Dr. Juan Sanchez-Esteban cared for Tyquan. When medical efforts failed, he prayed to Father Valera Parra, saying, “Fr. Valera, I have done everything I can. Now it’s your turn.”

Miraculously, Tyquan recovered soon after. Doctors expected lasting health problems due to oxygen deprivation, but Tyquan grew up healthy and happy.

Doctor Responds to Vatican’s Declaration
Following Pope Leo’s declaration, Dr. Sanchez-Esteban issued a statement:

“As a physician, I witness life’s fragility and resilience. Though I cannot discuss individual patients due to privacy laws, I recognize this Vatican recognition brings hope and meaning to many. At Care New England and Women & Infants Hospital, we remain committed to compassionate, excellent care that respects each person’s beliefs.”
