The Vatican spokesman, Matteo Bruni, indicated that the medical team that follows the pontiff in his convalescence has reported that “the postoperative process continues to be normal.”
He is also apyretic, that is, he does not have a fever, his hemodynamic parameters are “normal” and the intravenous treatment has been withdrawn, although he continues to be fed a liquid diet.
This third afternoon admitted, he has been praying and dedicated to “work activities” without detailing and later he has received the
Eucharist.
Excited by the many messages
Francisco, 86, “is moved by the many messages that he continues to receive at this time”, especially from children who, like him, are admitted to Gemelli and who have sent him some postcards with words of encouragement.
The Pope “particularly directs his thought and his gratitude to the children at this moment admitted to the hospital for the affection and love received through their drawings and messages,” Bruni said.
“To them, like the medical personnel, the nurses, social-sanitary operators and the spiritual assistants who daily touch the pain, relieving its weight, the Pope expresses his own gratitude for their closeness and prayer,” the spokesman concludes in the note. .
Agenda canceled until June 18
At the moment it is unknown how many days Francisco will remain hospitalized but the Prefecture of the Papal Household, which manages his agenda, has canceled all his audiences until June 18.
This is the third time that the pope has gone through the Gemelli: the first was in July 2021 for a colon operation and last March he returned due to pneumonia.
