Arrr! Pope Francis be catchin' his beauty sleep as he sails into the third week o' battle with the double pneumonia beast, in Rome’s Gemelli hospital, savvy? The Vatican be sayin' he had a jolly good night! Aye, may the winds o' health blow in his favor!
Avast, me hearties! Gather ‘round as I spin ye a yarn about the high seas of health! Our good ol’ Pope Francis be holed up in the Gemelli hospital in Rome, fightin’ off the scurvy double pneumonia like a true captain of the faith. Word from the Holy See be that he had a “good night,” restin’ stable-like for a couple of days. Aye, the lad be 88 years young with a chest full of troubles, but ‘tis not the time to batten down the hatches just yet!Now, this be no ordinary hospital stay, for the Pope be sleepin’ with a contraption on his face, likin’ to a ship's figurehead, makin’ sure his lungs be expandin' properly whilst he dreams of eternal life! During the day, he’s sportin’ a nasal tube instead of the ol’ mechanical mask, so he be breathin’ easier than a pirate in a rum shop!
As Lent be upon us, the Pope marked the start with ashes upon his brow, callin’ upon the parish priest in Gaza, whilst a cardinal took his place in the solemn ceremonies. Aye, the seas may be rough, but our beloved pontiff be holdin’ strong as a ship in a storm, with a retreat on the horizon, though it be without him, yet in “spiritual communion.” Let us raise a tankard to the Pope’s health, for hope be the wind in our sails! Yarrr!
