Pope Francis’ clinical condition “remains stable” and is better than yesterday, according to the latest medical report from his doctors in Rome’s Gemelli Hospital, which the Vatican released just before 7 p.m. on the evening of March 1.
Pope Francis had a setback after suffering an isolated coughing fit on Friday that resulted in him inhaling vomit, requiring non-invasive mechanical ventilation.
In an exclusive interview, Archbishop Gallagher says that if he met Donald Trump, he’d ask the president to “see behind the numbers to see the human stories that are represented by these illegal migrants in the United States today.”
“Throughout the day, he alternated between high-flow oxygen therapy and a Ventimask,” today’s medical report said. A Vatican source described this change as an improvement.
In Part I of this exclusive interview with Gerard O’Connell, the Vatican’s foreign minister says speculation about the pope’s resignation is “at this time, not appropriate, and it’s certainly not in the cards.”
Pope Francis “had a quiet night and is resting,” the Holy See Press Office informed journalists just after 8 a.m., Wednesday morning, Feb. 26, after his 12th night at the Gemelli Hospital.
