  • Story Text:People continued to pray for Pope Francis' recovery outside Rome's Gemelli Hospital on Wednesday (March 12).
    Francis, 88, has been hospitalised for more than three weeks.
    He admitted on February 14 with a severe respiratory infection that has required evolving treatment.
    On Monday (March 10), the Vatican said the pope was showing a "good response" to his treatment for double pneumonia and his doctors have determined his prognosis was no longer "guarded" - meaning he was no longer in immediate danger of death and responding well to treatment.
