Pope Francis’ Medical Team Reveals Near-Death Decision During Hospitalization

Doctors considered halting treatment after a critical respiratory crisis, but aggressive interventions and global prayers led to the Pope’s recovery and discharge on March 23.

Pope Francis faced a life-threatening bronchospasm on February 28, inhaling vomit and risking organ failure, as doctors debated stopping treatment.
The Pope’s personal nurse urged the medical team to pursue aggressive interventions despite high risks, leading to his eventual stabilization.
After 38 days in the hospital, the longest of his papacy, Pope Francis was discharged on March 23 and is now recovering at the Vatican under medical supervision.
Doctors credited the Pope’s cooperative nature, global prayers, and rigorous medical care for what they described as near-miraculous improvements during two critical episodes.
The Vatican has not confirmed whether Pope Francis will participate in Holy Week or meet King Charles III, as he undergoes two months of prescribed rest and rehabilitation.
