Healing of Marie Lemarchand (Mrs Authier)

Marie Lemarchand was cured on 21 August 1892, the day after Marie Lebranchu. Both were Paris pilgrims in the National Pilgrimage. Mgr Amette, Archbishop of Paris, recognised five cures as miraculous in 1908, including Marie Lemarchand, Clementine Trouvé, Marie Lebranchu, and Esther Brachmann.

The Lourdes Medical Bureau gathered documentation; the International Medical Committee (C.M.I.L.) affirmed the cure was inexplicable in the current state of medical knowledge. The Bishop of Paris recognized it on 6 June 1908. Tuberculosis was the leading cause of death before antibiotics. Rapid, complete cure without drugs is medically unexplained.
