The Pope managed to resume some of his duties, including reaching out to the Priest of the Parish of Gaza to reaffirm his spiritual support. Notably, on Sunday, he called for prayers from Catholics worldwide after being unable to deliver the Angelus prayer in person for the second consecutive week. In solidarity, members of the clergy in Rome are gathering nightly to pray for the Pope, led by Cardinal Parolin, the Vatican's secretary of state. With a history of lung issues stemming from a youth ailment, Pope Francis remains particularly vulnerable to pneumonia—a major concern as he continues his fight for recovery.

Pope Francis Shows Signs of Improvement Amid Critical Health Status
In a recent update, the Vatican has reported a slight improvement in Pope Francis's health, although he continues to be in critical condition.
The 88-year-old Pope's health has seen minimal progress according to new statements from Vatican officials, as he battles respiratory and kidney complications. Following a challenging weekend where his health was deemed critical, the Vatican announced that a minor kidney issue is no longer considered a significant concern. The Pope has reportedly shown stability in his respiratory condition, with no further asthma attacks observed. While he is undergoing oxygen therapy, doctors have opted not to provide a detailed prognosis at this time.
