Exciting news from the Holy See! The latest update on Pope Francis’s health reveals that he is stable, in good spirits, and fully dedicated to his work at Casa Santa Marta. After being discharged from Gemelli Hospital on March 23, the Pontiff continues his recovery process with remarkable progress.
Recent medical analyses show that the Pope’s blood test results are back to normal, indicating a positive trajectory in his healing journey. Additionally, a chest X-ray has displayed significant improvement in his lung infection, showcasing the effectiveness of his treatment.
Despite still requiring high-flow oxygen at night or when necessary for breathing assistance, Pope Francis has shown notable advancements in mobility, respiratory capacity, and vocal use. His commitment to his responsibilities remains unwavering as he conducts daily Mass at the Casa Santa Marta chapel and attends to his desk duties.
Looking ahead, updates have been provided on the Pope’s public engagements. While he may not physically present his catechesis on April 2, the text will be published as usual. The Angelus and Sunday Mass for the Jubilee of the Sick and the World of Health will also be addressed, with Monsignor Rino Fisichella standing in for the Pope as needed.
As Holy Week approaches, the Pope’s participation in the celebrations will depend on his health progress in the upcoming days. Nevertheless, the Holy Father remains in high spirits, buoyed by the continuous outpouring of love and support from the faithful.
