ROME – Pope Francis was doing well on Thursday morning after his first night at a hospital following abdominal surgery, the Vatican has disclosed.
Pope Francis has two trips planned for this summer: to Portugal from Aug 2 to 6 to attend the World Youth Day festival and visit the Shrine of Fatima; and from Aug 31 to Sept 4 to Mongolia, one of the more remote places he has travelled to. During his 2021 stay at Gemelli Hospital after a procedure to address a painful bowel condition called diverticulitis, Pope Francis recited the traditional Sunday prayer from a balcony on the Roman Catholic-run hospital’s 10th floor, which has a suite of rooms reserved for popes.
