Pope Francis returns for Sunday address after abdominal surgery appeared on www.nydailynews.com by Peter Sblendorio.
Pope Francis gave his regular Sunday address in Vatican City and thanked supporters following his nine-day hospitalization for abdominal surgery.
The appearance in front of 15,000 people at St. Peter’s Square came two days after the 86-year-old pope went home from Rome’s A. Gemelli University Hospital.

The operation was Francis’ second abdominal surgery since July 2021, when he underwent surgery to treat diverticular stenosis of the colon. Earlier this year, the pontiff spent three days at Gemelli Hospital with bronchitis.

The three-hour surgery removed internal intestinal scarring, which had caused a partial blockage.
