How is Pope Francis doing during his hospitalization for pneumonia?
Pope Francis is showing improvement during his hospitalization for pneumonia. According to the update from Gemelli Hospital, he is now breathing on his own and has been able to sit up in an armchair, indicating positive recovery signs. Despite being under doctor's orders to rest, he remains engaged with his duties, reviewing important documents brought by his aides. The Pope had been very busy in recent weeks and reportedly was reluctant to go to the hospital last Friday. However, he was ultimately required to undergo necessary tests that could only be performed at the hospital facility. His condition appears to be stable while he continues his recovery.
