Less than two days after pre-scheduled surgery on his colon, Pope Francis is already getting back into a morning rhythm.
According to a statement released by Director of the Holy See Press Office, Matteo Bruni, the Holy Father rested well during the night and began his day enjoying breakfast, reading some newspapers and getting up to walk.
In addition, Bruni reassured: “The post – operative course is regular. Routine follow-up examinations are good.”
Here is a working translation by Exaudi of the statement of Matteo Bruni, given in a noon bulletin, providing the most recent update on the Pope:
