One such is related here:

Also, a recently published book addresses further instances of miracles attributed to him both when he was alive and after his death:

As for the timing of his canonization, that may take a few years, but given the impact of the late Holy Father’s life and message, the process will no doubt be sooner than later. It’s not a matter of a respectful time, but of a thorough examination of his life and of the miracles attributed to him. The process of canonization is in stages: Servant of God (this is the stage of John Paul II’s cause at present), Venerable, Blessed, then Saint (some causes never get past Servant of God).
