THE Vatican issued an update on Pope Francis’ health after previously warning he was “not out of danger”.
The 88-year-old was admitted to hospital on February 14 and has been forced to pull out of official engagements.
The pontiff has been suffering from pneumonia in both lungs and is undergoing treatment at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital.
The Vatican shared a short update on his condition, as Catholics across the world hold out hope the 88-year-old gets better.
It said: “Pope Francis rested well.”
This positive update came after a series of worrying updates from The Church.
