Pope Francis facing early stages of kidney failure

Pope Francis, 88, is suffering from bilateral pneumonia. According to the Vatican, the Holy Father’s condition is critical. The news of the pope’s worsening health was announced last Friday.

Since then, he has been hospitalized and he’s currently staying at the Gemelli University Hospital in Rome. On Sunday, the Holy See Press Office shared an update on the pope’s health, saying that while his condition “remains critical,” he has not had any further respiratory crises since Saturday evening.

The past weekend, he experienced a prolonged asthmatic respiratory crisis, made worse by the fact that he had part of one of his lungs removed when he was younger.The Vatican reports that the pope’s low platelet count remains stable. However, some blood tests show early signs of mild kidney issues, which are currently under control.

”He received two units of concentrated red blood cells with benefit, and his hemoglobin levels have risen,” the report said.
