According to the news tonight the Pope's health has taken a turn for the worse and he is now in a critical condition.  He has been given a blood transfusion and there is grave concern.  Not good.

VATICAN CITY (AP) — A frail Pope Francis returned to the Vatican on Sunday after a five-week hospitalization for life-threatening double pneumonia, and he made a surprise stop at his favorite basilica on the way home before beginning two months of prescribed rest and recovery.

Pope Francis looked very frail when I  saw a clip of him on TV.  And e was breathless after speaking only a few words. Hopefully, after a good rest his health will improve

Things are looking better now.

But remember, no one is immortal.  Our Lord Himself passed through death.

"Dearest brothers and sisters, with deep sorrow I must announce the death of our Holy Father Francis. At 7:35 this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the house of the Father. His entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord and of His Church. He taught us to live the values of the Gospel with fidelity, courage, and universal love, especially in favor of the poorest and most marginalized. With immense gratitude for his example as a true disciple of the Lord Jesus, we commend the soul of Pope Francis to the infinite merciful love of the One and Triune God."

 Cardinal Kevin Farrell, Camerlengo of the Apostolic Chamber
