Pope Francis has a Fever - the Vatican Announced that the Pope is Sick and Canceled his Audiences - Please Pray!
The pope's health has apparently had another down turn as his audiences on Friday were canceled.
The Pope Francis' health has apparently deteriorated again. The Vatican press office announced on Friday afternoon that the audiences for Friday morning had been canceled because he had a fever. Meetings with groups weren't scheduled anyway;
However, Francis did not receive individuals either. The state of health of the 86-year-old has been changing for a long time. Among other things, he suffers from an intestinal disease and has a limp. Before Easter he had to spend three days in the Gemelli Hospital in Rome due to pneumonia. On May 25th, Francis held a full program with eight audiences - including a meeting with the Italian bishops at the end of their spring plenary assembly in the Vatican. In the evening he met a group of mayors from Latin America. Shortly before this encounter, in an interview with the Spanish-language television station Telemundo, when asked how his health was doing, he replied: "Much better."
