Editor’s Note: Here at FromRome.Info, I pay close attention to the claims about Pope Francis’ health, and I especially note when those claims change, when no other journalist does, because even changes are news.
And this above report by Vatican News is occasion for a prime example: because Vatican News yesterday at 12:30 PM local time published a report which claims that Pope Francis has been counseled by his doctors to avoid all meetings, both those with groups and those with individuals; whereas, on Saturday, his medical team at Gemelli Hospital only recommended that he avoid meetings with large groups and children.
So clearly Pope Francis’ health has become extremely more delicate, if it has not deteriorated further after his release from hospital, just two days ago.
This press release was made shortly before King Charles announced that he had “postponed” his state visit to the Vatican. That visit was scheduled between April 7 and April 10. So to cancel that visit means that Pope Francis’ health condition is not seen by his current medical staff as something which is likely to improve over the next two weeks.

These developments fly in the face of the Main Stream Media’s chorus, that Pope Francis will eventually recover entirely and be able to return to his work-aholic schedule, and that his convalescence is only a temporary situation.
The truth maybe quite different: it may not be convalescence, but hospice care, also known as pallative care: that is, assisted living in the face of inevitable death in the next few weeks.
Alas, if the Vatican is not forthcoming as to the reason why the Pope can no longer meet with individuals, it is simply going to foster more wild speculation about whether he is dead or has been substituted with a fake who could not convince even King Charles. — Less wild speculation is already appearing on Catholic social media sites like Gloria.TV, where even priests are saying that he was released from the hospital, to die; not because he is cured, but because Gemelli does not want it said that a Pope died under their care.
In related news, it appears Pope Francis has lost the ability to sign documents
For in the above report from The Pillar, the Apostolic Nuncio to the United States admitted that he had to use a rare power of Nuncios, in special circumstances, to appoint the new Archbishop of Washington, D. C., because, “I cannot read to you a document which the Pope has not signed”. And that was in regard to an appointment on February 11, 2025, some 6 weeks ago. The Papal Bull has still not been signed. Thus, the conclusion is, that Pope Francis has lost the ability to write with his right hand.

Not too surprising, given that his doctors at least twice during his hospital stay had considered not prolonging the medications that are destroying his body, as reported by LifeSiteNews, and the reaction to his brief balcony blessing, which showed him looking dazed at best.

This report, about considering to stop treatment, which is now on all the MSM sites, has me wondering; because I thought that medical ethics require doctors to try to save a patient even in dire circumstances.
