Pope Francis remains in a critical condition with blood tests showing early kidney failure, but he is alert, Vatican officials have said.
The 88-year-old pontiff, who is battling pneumonia and a complex lung infection, even managed to attend mass on Sunday, in a strong statement of support for his followers. In a late update, the Vatican said Francis hadn't had any more respiratory crises since Saturday night but was still receiving high flows of supplemental oxygen.
Some blood tests showed "initial, mild, kidney failure," but doctors said it was under control. The decreased platelet count, necessary for clotting, that was first detected on Saturday was stable.
"The complexity of the clinical picture, and the necessary wait for drug therapies to provide some feedback, dictate that the prognosis remains reserved," the doctors concluded. Earlier today, a message was posted from the Pope's social media accounts, thanking everyone who reached out with messages of support.
It read: "I have recently received many messages of affection, and I have been particularly struck by the letters and drawings from children. Thank you for your closeness, and for the consoling prayers I have received from all over the world!"
