PHILADELPHIA -- The parents of a 1-year-old girl says their daughter's inoperable brain tumor shrank after a moment with Pope Francis.
The pontiff was in Philadelphia in September during his visit to the United States when little Gianna Masciantonio went to the parade thanks to a family friend in the FBI.
At the parade, the pope's bodyguard presented her to the pontiff and he kissed her.
Now, Gianna's brain tumor is barely visible, and her parents say she is now starting to point and blow kisses herself.
