Pope Leo made an announcement during his Sunday blessing today that he will undergo surgery in the coming days to remove a nodular lesion on his lung.
Prayers.

He has been diagnosed with lung cancer. I hope he makes a full recovery after treatment.

I’ll certainly be praying for him to whichever God will listen to me. A good, kind gentle man, the best Pope I can ever remember. I’m not religious myself but he to me is the embodiment of everything a religious leader should be.

Wishing the Pope a speedy recovery. Apparently he is very fit so that increases the chances of a good recovery.
At least Pope Benedict gave a recent example of retiring due to ill health so if Pope Leo (God forbid) is more ill than we all hope then he has a viable alternative to struggling on regardless.

I’m not religious, but I wish the Pope well for a speedy recovery. He’s the same age as me - makes you appreciate your health. 😎

He did his Sunday blessing today and is talking about his S American tour.

I am not Catholic but I deeply respect this Pope. He’s a good ‘un.
