Vatican Gives Major Health Update On Pope Francis Fighting Double Pneumonia: ‘Through The Night…’

The whole world is praying for you... and everyone wishes you good health,

the priest said in the video, which was published on Vatican News and showed him surrounded by his flock

The Holy Father’s condition remains critical, but stable. No acute respiratory episodes have occurred and the hemodynamic parameters continue to be stable,

the Vatican said in a statement, translated from Italian

We heard that he is in the hospital right now and we are very worried about his health,

Nguyen said

The pope has always said that the papacy is for life, and he has shown that there is no problem with a frail and elderly pope,

In the morning, after receiving the Eucharist, he resumed work activities,

the Vatican statement said

I could be wrong, but I hope not,

The Vatican has finally learned that it is better to be forthcoming than to let conspiracy theorists fill the void,

said Tom Reese, a Jesuit priest and commentator who has covered the papacy closely

May our prayer be the breath of fresh air that reaches his lungs,

Jorge García Cuerva, Archbishop of Buenos Aires, said in his sermon

Seeing him up close, with the people, I always liked it. That is why he is my mentor, he is my father, and he is my priest,

said the 49-year-old

A prayer is very powerful. It reaches the ears of God, but it also reaches the soul of the one we are praying for,

she added

From this square, Francis said that our society is full of beaten men and women,

said García Cuerva

Here at Constitución you see life at its crudest, without make-up,

he added

I've been cautiously impressed,

said Greg Erlandson, a U.S. journalist who has covered the Vatican for decades

Romanelli said

When such lives are lost, ... they are not grievable, since, in the twisted logic that rationalizes their death, the loss of such populations is deemed necessary to protect the lives of the ‘living’.”

Butler writes

Andreoni said
