Primul mesaj al Papei Leon după operația de cancer: „Vă rog să vă rugați pentru mine”

Pope Leon XIV has requested prayers from the faithful following his lung cancer surgery, with recovery progressing well. He expressed gratitude for support in a message to participants of a symposium on 'Amoris laetitia'. The surgery involved the removal of a lung lobe and took place on October 13, 2026. The Pope is expected to resume public activities after October 20, 2026, despite canceling appearances due to post-operative treatment. He has a family history of cancer but maintains a healthy lifestyle.
