Pope Francis is expected to be discharged on Saturday from the Rome hospital where he is being treated for bronchitis, the Vatican said.
Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni said in a written statement on Friday that the pope's recovery has been"normal" and that he ate a pizza Thursday for dinner.
The 86-year-old pontiff was taken to Rome's Gemelli Polyclinic on Wednesday after he returned to his Vatican residence following his customary weekly public audience in St. Peter's Square. The Vatican reported he had experienced difficult breathing in the previous days. Italian Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re said Friday that Francis might be discharged Saturday and would thus be able to preside over -- but not celebrate -- Holy Week ceremonies.
