Amazing..what the human body is capable of. In my own beliefs, I think a large portion of what is credited to 'magick' is actually our own minds using areas of the brain we forgot how to intentionally access or simply have buried so deeply, we've literally come to accept the abilities no longer exist.
Of course, I'd never suggest this result could be had by "willing it" be so. That is a way to die of self inflicted medical neglect, actually.
Still..... This is one incredible story!!
Self-Curing, through self repair. What a stunning concept. I mean that, too. No sarcasm intended at ALL. The body really is an incredible system of processes too complex to really think we'll grasp how things like this happen, just as they need to, but only SO rarely as to make it almost fair to call it impossible. ...almost.

Pure random chance and luck in the big bio-soup we call our DNA....or a great example of intelligent design and intervention? Perhaps just her OWN intelligence, too. There need not be a Divine presence to term something intelligently brought about, IMO.
Maybe we really do sell ourselves short for what the body itself can fix..if we don't spend so much effort convincing ourselves such talk is crazy and impossible, anyway.
** Of course ..planning for a thing like this is like taking out $1 Million from mafia loan sharks, planning to repay it with a lottery win that hasn't happened yet. It isn't likely to end well......yet...there she sits to show that just occasionally? The lottery does pay.

A woman with a rare disease has been spontaneously cured in an event so improbable doctors say it is the medical equivalent of a lottery win.

The cure was traced back to a mutation in a single cell in her bone marrow.
An event called "chromosomal shattering" in which a part of the DNA is rearranged led to 164 genes being lopped out of her DNA.
Crucially this included the mutated one that was causing the problem.
