Cardinal Parolin gives details on Pope in Vatican and raises juncture for new form of government

Speaking on March 27 at an event in Sacrofano, near Rome, Parolin shared that he continuously receives messages from people praying for the pope’s full recovery. «Perhaps he won’t be able to work as before, and in that case, we must find different ways for him to continue leading the Church,» he said.

This is how the Pope almost died twice (as told by the doctor who treated him)

Dr Alfieri’s words were collected in an interview given and published by the Italian newspaper Corrière della Sera on Tuesday, March 25. What did they do in face of the Pope’s serious situation? «We had to choose between letting him go or trying every medication and therapy possible, running the very high risk of damaging other organs. And in the end, we took this path,» he replied.
