Pope Francis remains in a critical but slightly improved condition after spending his 13th night at Rome's Gemelli Hospital, marking the longest hospital stay of his nearly 12-year papacy. According to the Vatican, he has slept well and is now resting. Officials also reported that he continues to receive oxygen, but there have been no further respiratory issues, and a CT scan revealed normal progress in the inflammation of his lungs. On Wednesday, hundreds of faithful gathered in Saint Peter’s Square to pray for his recovery.
Dax Donaway, a student from the United States, said, “And just kind of walking through here every day, you can kind of feel how everything has been kind of sad. So I definitely say it's disappointing and kind of everyone's on edge.

We come from Sardinia, we are here for something else, but we said let's stop by and that's it."
