Irish woman Kay is convinced that an image of Padre Pio is visible in a wooden banister of her stairs.

Kay (80) was talking on RTE's Joe Duffy Liveline radio show saying that when builders were in installing a new staircase that the discovery was made.

Kay is convinced that the face of the saint is clearly visible in the staircase banister saying, "They were doing the banisters upstairs and my husband was giving them a hand. He was sanding down the banisters upstairs and he stopped and said to, 'Will you come in and have a look at this?'"

"And he said, 'Oh my God, I can't believe it. That's Padre Pio!' His face is in the banisters upstairs. It's been sanded and varnished many, many times and his face is still there as prominent as ever."

"It's unbelievable. You can see his face, you can see the high forehead, you can see the beard, and you can see his eyes."

Kay went on to state, "I took a photo of it and showed my friends and they can’t believe it. I said to them, 'Who do you think this is?' and they said 'That's Padre Pio!'"

"It's not anybody; it's Padre Pio. It's the image of Padre Pio. It's definitely Padre Pio."

Kay explained that she has "great faith" and devotion to the saint Padre Pio after he "took me through" a breast cancer operation in the 1990s.

"I had a small little relic of Padre Pio in my hand going down for my operation and the nurse couldn't believe that it was still in my fist when I came back from my operation. I swear that he took me through it. I've never looked back after that."
