Pope Francis continues to be in good spirits, with his overall condition remaining stable, according to the latest update from the Holy See Press Office.

He is undergoing prescribed therapies, and his motor skills, breathing, and voice usage continue to improve. High-flow oxygenation is primarily used at night and as needed.
