Pope Francis remains in critical condition, with blood tests showing mild signs of kidney failure “which is currently under control,” the Vatican said Sunday, as the 88-year-old pontiff battles pneumonia in both his lungs.

Pope Francis is apparently awake, eating and in good spirits after being admitted to hospital with pneumonia and a “mild” kidney infection just over ten days ago, according to the latest update from the Vatican.

Officials said Pope Francis is in critical condition as he battles pneumonia and early kidney failure. He was awake and eating normally during his treatments. Crowds have been gathering at Vatican City to pray for his recovery. Doctors reported Sunday that blood tests showed his early kidney failure was under control.
