Pope is not out of danger, is a fragile patient and has no forecast of high
“If the question is: is the Pope out of danger? No. Not yet. But he is in deadly danger now? The answer, once again, is no. A few minutes ago he left the room to go to the chapel to pray. Head is from a man of fifty years. But he said to me, ‘I realize the situation is serious.’ Sergio Lfieri.
The pontiff will be hospitalized at least another week. According to the doctor Sergio Lfieri, the Pope is reading, playing, but has pneumonia. “It will be discharged when it is no longer necessary to manage hospital therapies,” he said. The Pope has a polymicrobial infection, with viruses, fungi and bacteria. Despite this, it keeps the good mood. The doctor said that on Friday morning, he greeted the Pope and said to him, “Good morning, Holy Father,” and he replied, “Good morning, Holy Son.”
Doctor Sergio Lfieri recalled that the religious began to be treated with a flu at home. “As an 88 -year -old patient, when it is no longer possible to treat at home, the patient’s internal people,” he said. He added that the Pope is different from other elderly patients. “The difference is that other 88 -year -old people stay at home watching television in a wheelchair. Do you know another 88 -year -old man who rules a state and is also the spiritual father of Catholics in the world? It got tired a lot, “he said.
The Pope is responding well to treatments. “We have seen improvements, but it takes too little to be unbalanced. It is impossible to give a deadline,” said Lfieri after being asked about a new discharge forecast. The medical team also detailed that the Argentine religious Jorge Bergoglio “is not bedridden, not stuck in any machine. At most, he gets a little oxygen when he has an asthmatic crisis from time to time. He is breathing spontaneously and feeding “He added.
About the non -disclosure of Pope’s images last week, the doctor cited the privacy of the religious. “We don’t want a picture of the pijama Pope in the newspaper, we will respect anyone’s privacy. When he wants to show himself, he will show himself. But he has to dress like Pope, he is not in bed in Papa clothes,” stressed Sergio Lfieri.
