Pope Francis was photographed at the hospital for the first time since being admitted last month for double pneumonia. The 88-year-old pope celebrated Holy Mass at the hospital chapel, with a Vatican official confirming his condition remains stable. He has been undergoing therapy, including motor and respiratory physiotherapy, and has been able to do some work during the day. Last week, Francis marked the 12th anniversary of his election as pope while still hospitalized. He recently participated in a virtual spiritual retreat, as he continues his recovery from a respiratory infection. The pope, who had part of one lung removed earlier in life, was admitted to the hospital on Feb. 14 due to a respiratory infection that progressed to double pneumonia. While he has been declared safe from the immediate threat of death, doctors are cautiously monitoring his progress and have not specified how long he will remain hospitalized. Despite his frailty, Pope Francis has been making gradual improvements and a recent chest X-ray showed positive results. The Vatican remains optimistic about his recovery but is taking a cautious approach to ensure his well-being.
