Hospitalized Pope Francis, “the nurses are very optimistic, they believe that there will be celebrations for next Palm Sunday. Barring unforeseen events, of course”
He spent a quiet night, “smooth as oil”Pope Francis according to what theHandle from sources close to the tenth floor of the Gemelli Polyclinic, where the Pontiff has been hospitalized since yesterday in the special apartment of the Popes for “a respiratory infection“. “Nurses are very optimistic, they believe that for next Palm Sunday celebrations, there will be. Barring unforeseen events of course”, they still report.
In fact, from the very first moments, Massimiliano Strapppetti, 54, was with the Pontiff, a nurse so close and listened to by Bergoglio that it was he who convinced him to undergo colon surgery three years ago. Today, however, a day of complete hospitalization is completely taken for granted.
Comprehensibly the whole religious and lay community came together to express solidarity and closeness to the Holy Father. This is the message that was tweeted from his official account to thank everyone:
I am touched by the many messages received in these hours and I express my gratitude to all for your closeness and prayers.
