Pope Francis, 88, is recovering well at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital after struggling with breathing problems caused by pneumonia. According to the Vatican, his lungs are getting better, and he can now spend more time without the help of a breathing machine. Doctors say he is able to walk, eat normal food, and do breathing exercises to strengthen his lungs.
Despite these improvements, medical experts warn that his condition is still serious due to his past lung surgery and age. On Friday, he had a breathing spasm, but there are no signs of new infections. The Pope has been praying daily and has even resumed some of his work while in the hospital. However, he will not be leading Sunday prayers for the third week in a row.
Many people around the world continue to pray for his recovery, gathering outside the Vatican and the hospital. The Vatican is closely monitoring his health and will provide more updates as he continues to recover.
