Pope Francis continues to be hospitalized and his health condition is concerning. Yesterday's medical report revealed that, although he has not experienced further respiratory crises, he is suffering from mild renal insufficiency. Some experts suggest this could be a sign of sepsis, but further details are not yet known. It is reported that he had a "good night" despite his critical condition.
"The night went well, the Pope slept and rested," the Vatican stated in a morning communication. Today marks 10 days since Pope Francis was hospitalized at Gemelli Hospital in Rome.
Nevertheless, this Sunday the Pope attended mass at the hospital where he is admitted.
Prayers worldwide for Pope Francis' health
In recent days, various prayers have been organized worldwide, especially in Latin America, for Pope Francis' health. Many religious leaders claim to be praying for him. Since Saturday night, internet users have posted hundreds of messages affirming their prayers for him.
"Behind the Pope's renal issue, there could be sepsis. The next hours are crucial"
The life of Pope Francis depends on what happens in the next hours. These are the most difficult and still very dangerous days.
"It is a good sign that he has not had a respiratory crisis and that the hemoglobin levels, which when low can cause anemia, have increased again with transfusions. One reason for the decrease in red blood cells is the frequency of blood samples taken, necessary for monitoring a patient," commented last night Abele Donati, director of the anesthesia and resuscitation clinic at the Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria delle Marche and full professor at the Polytechnic University of Ancona.
