Pope Francis had abdominal surgery earlier this week and has been recovering ever since, including missing Sunday’s public blessing.
“If he has a careful recovery, he'll be back better” than before at the Vatican, Alfieri said. “It's prudence that we suggested and that he wisely accepted.”
“For his age, 86, he doesn't have pathologies” regarding his heart or respiratory systems, Alfieri said in response to a reporter's question. Meanwhile, thousands of people turned out in St. Peter’s Square for a gathering to promote the value of brotherhood — a quality so dear to Francis that he wrote an encyclical on its importance in 2020.
Alfieri recalled his remarks, hours after the surgery, that Francis had experienced no complications during the surgery or from the general anesthesia.
