At his weekly audience on Wednesday, February 28, Pope Francis told the faithful he was still ailing and deferred the reading to an assistant. The 87-year-old pope, who has recently experienced various health problems, postponed appointments on Saturday and Monday because of what the Vatican described as a minor case of the flu. He delivered his Angelus message to the usual Sunday gatherings in St. Peter's Square. Meanwhile, Italian news agency Ansa reported that Pope Francis visited Rome's Gemelli hospital following his general audience at the Vatican on Wednesday. Pope Francis Breaks Down in Tears While Offering Prayers for Peace in Ukraine During Annual Prayer at Rome’s Spanish Steps (Watch Video).
