A professor of medicine in Italy, Paolo Maria Marianeschi has written a book on the phenomenon of the Stigmata published by the Vatican Editors. He is also doctor of theology, and this was his dissertation. He is going to hold a conference on the theme and would like to know if there are any medical reports of some sorts available regarding Myrna's stigmata. Could you help us on this one? It is very urgent.

My book on miracles has been translated into Swedish. I will send you both the Swedish and Danish.

For me there is no problem; I will ask the publisher. Only problem remains that it is only in Danish or Swedish, and as it is right now I just don't have the necessary time to translate it into English. You can even have it in Italian thought with some efforts. I would have to ask it from the publisher who has already had it translated but not yet published.  

I did meet Myrna in 1993, I think. I have spoken about Myrna at around 100 conferences after the publication of my book. Here in Italy I am in contact with two surgeons who are both from their angle world leading experts on the phenomenon of the stigmata. My new research project is on the interaction of faith and health, so it is somewhat related.

Good to hear from you. You were of great help for the TV team for which I thank you praying it will be blessing many people in Denmark.

The book is written in Danish and translated and published in Swedish. It will appear in Italian this coming spring, God willing. I would be glad to send you a copy of each. Please send me your address for that.

I have been asked to help with a number of programs for Swedish Television as well, not just one program as with the Danish production but between six and ten programs. I have proposed them to make one on Soufanieh. Do you know when would be the next time the Easter Dates are coinciding, Gabriel?

Attached you will find the recommendation for the Swedish Catholic Journalist who is working for TV3 and who is very grateful that he can come with his TV-crew to film the events this year. He is excellent and TV3 is the largest TV-station in Sweden. Just as the Research Team, they ask for a short conversation with Myrna, if possible Wednesday of the Holy Week. They arrive Tuesday. The TV-crew is independent of the Research Team.
