(Vatican = Yonhap News) Correspondent Park Soo-hyun = It was confirmed that the situation at the time was much more urgent than was known, with Pope Francis, who had recently been safely discharged from the hospital following receiving treatment for bronchitis, losing consciousness at one time.
According to Italian public broadcaster RAI on the 11th (local time), the pope answered, “I arrived at the hospital unconscious,” when asked regarding his health while on the phone with his friend Michele Perry on the 8th.
Pope Francis was admitted to Gemelli Hospital in Rome, Italy, following complaining of breathing difficulties on the 29th of last month and was diagnosed with bronchitis.
At the time, the pope, who had safely completed the Wednesday general audience, had to seek help from those around him when he got into the car, and while frowning in pain, concerns arose that he might have a serious health problem.
Pope Francis was treated with antibiotics for three days, and fortunately, his health improved and he was safely discharged on the 1st.
This is the first time that it has been known that the pope was unconscious while admitted to Gemelli Hospital. As a result, concerns regarding the pope’s health are likely to be raised once more.
Michele Perry, a friend of the pope, is the brother of Andrea Perry, who was shot dead by a robber on June 3, 2013 in Pesaro, Italy.
Since the pope heard the news and contacted Michele, they have been calling regularly for the past 10 years, and this is the 90th call, local media reported.
“The pope’s voice was resonant and resolute,” said Michele. “My goal is to have my 100th call with the pope.”
