Pope Francis appeared in public for the first time in over a month, greeting and blessing the faithful from the balcony of Gemelli Hospital before being discharged. After a stop at St. Mary Major, where he offered flowers to the Salus Populi Romani, the Pontiff returned to the Vatican, where he will continue his convalescence at Casa Santa Marta for at least two months, with medical treatment and physiotherapy. | EWTN Vatican
