Who claimed this, though?  Answer:  2nd or 3rd generation, Greek speaking Christians who were scattered throughout the Diaspora.

GC, Do you believe in the Miracle of Calanda:

Wikipedia -- Miracle of Calanda

If not, why not?
 Peter, John, Matthew were all eyewitnesses to these events they are also 1st generation. Paul and Luke had first hand accounts from eyewitnesses and were also 1st generation writers. 
 I do not know if the story is true or not, what I do know is the process of healing as described in the testimonies is not how God would work. The healing done by Jesus were immediate and witnessed by people who were present at the event.
 If this man's leg was amputated because of gangrene then the miracle was that he was healed and was able to continue with his life, gangrene so bad that the leg was black was fatal the majority of the time in those days. So I take this story with a grain of salt and let others decide for themselves if it's true or not. Sensational health and wealth stories are not important to me because I see the real reasons for a Christian life and when healing comes then that is a great bit of grace from God.

How do you know that?

 Really, I mean what do you expect me to say, you know the answer. Just because you are convinced the Bible is fiction doesn't make it so.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
