Pope Hospitalized with Pneumonia for 27 Days... "Spending a Quiet Night"
The Vatican announced on the 12th (local time) that Pope Francis, who has been hospitalized for nearly four weeks due to pneumonia, spent a quiet night.
The Vatican Press Office conveyed the Pope's condition in a media release that morning. Since his enthronement, the Pope has been receiving treatment for pneumonia affecting both lungs at Rome's Gemelli Hospital, marking his longest hospitalization at 27 days.
During his hospital stay, the Pope experienced respiratory distress four times, facing critical moments. However, his condition has remained stable for over a week recently.
On the 10th, the Vatican stated, "The Pope's condition is no longer serious enough to threaten his life," but did not mention any discharge plans.
The 13th marks the 12th anniversary of Pope Francis's election as the 226th Pope. The anniversary is commemorated quietly internally without official events. This year, it is expected to pass even more quietly due to his hospitalization.
