Pope Francis shows signs of gradual improvement as Vatican issues new health report.
Recent reports from the Vatican indicate that
Pope Francis' health is gradually improving.
As of Saturday evening, the pontiff's condition is described as stable, with laboratory results showing balanced levels.
The updates confirm that he has not experienced a fever, and his respiratory function has improved, responding well to treatments.
Furthermore, it has been noted that he has been able to work while also engaging in rest.
He received non-invasive mechanical ventilation overnight.
Despite these positive indicators, the medical team remains cautious about making definitive prognoses regarding his health.
On the morning of the same day, the Pope participated in prayer within the chapel before continuing with his work in the afternoon.
Looking ahead to Sunday, Cardinal Michael Czerny will deliver the Pope's homily during Mass, while
Pope Francis will follow the spiritual exercises in communion with the Roman Curia.
The text of the Angelus prayer will be published in writing, given his current circumstances.
Pope Francis was admitted to a hospital on February 14 due to bilateral pneumonia.
This marks the first time since then that he has addressed his followers in his own voice, reaffirming his connection with the faithful.
