Pope Francis still in critical condition on 10th day of hospitalization, Vatican says, tying longest of his papacy
CBSN
Rome — Pope Francis was resting Monday morning after a quiet night on the 10th day of his hospitalization for a complex lung infection that has provoked the early stages of kidney failure, the Vatican said.
The one-line statement didn't say if Francis, 88, had woken up. "The night passed well, the pope slept and is resting," it said.
His condition has revived speculation about what might happen if he becomes unconscious or otherwise incapacitated, and whether he might resign.
