Note that leader around the world have chimed in with expressions of concern and support for the pope. The Trump White House remains uncharacteristically silent.

Apparently one of the things this Pope made sure happened before he went in to surgery was having the American Cardinal send a message to US Service Members that the Death Penalty isn't Pro Life, and that Catholics should find a way to refuse to participate in a Firing Squad, publicly broadcast or not.
Which in their terms is more than a Suggestion, it's Church policy now.

Hopefully he will be, it's the most common kind of lung cancer apparently.
And he's thankfully not one of the Trump supporting Bishops who could possibly take his place.

May God's blessings envelope Leo. I hope he has a full recovery...

Jimmy Carter fought off brain cancer in his 90s and was under hospice care for . . . years.
Hope the pope is just fine.
