Pope Francis assured this Wednesday that he feels better from the recent bronchitis he had, but he preferred not to read the texts he had prepared for the general audience because he still gets tired when he has to speak.
“Dear brothers and sisters, welcome everyone. Also today I asked Monsignor Ciampanelli for help. [referindo-se a um dos seus assistentes] read, because I still have difficulties. “I’m much better, but I’m tired of talking,” the Pope said at the beginning of the general audience held in the Paul VI hall.
The Vatican confirmed that on Friday Francis will go to the central Spanish Steps in Rome to pay tribute to the Immaculate Conception, after the recent “lung inflammation” that forced him to suspend some commitments and from which he is recovering thanks to antibiotics. .
The flu led him to suspend some events and his trip to the climate summit in Dubai, as well as holding audiences at his papal residence, Casa Santa Marta, as well as praying the Sunday Angelus at the Apostolic Palace.
At the same time, the Vatican confirmed the Pope’s participation in the mass in honor of the Virgin of Guadalupe, patron saint of Latin America, on December 12, at 6 p.m. local time.
