Pope Francis Hospitalized with Double Pneumonia
Pope Francis, hospitalized since Wednesday with bronchitis, remains in good spirits, resting and praying. His public events are cancelled through Sunday due to a respiratory tract infection requiring adjusted medication. This hospitalization follows a previous bronchitis-related admission in March 2023 and is complicated by pre-existing lung conditions stemming from past pleurisy and lung surgery. The Pope expressed gratitude for well wishes and requested prayers.
