He had contracted Diphteria in 1945 but survived it. Later he developed severe pains in his legs and could not walk. Tuberculosis was diagnosed. One day Aidan asked to be brought ot Fr. Charles's grave, though this surprised his parents as they were not aware of his knowing anything about Fr. Charles. Aidan later claimed the Fr. Charles had visited him and told him to visit the grave. He regained the use of his legs sometime later and suffered no ill effects. He also claimed that Fr. Charles had visited him again in his room.
