Pope Benedict XVI, who will celebrate in April 91st, writes in a letter to readers of “Crrier della Sera” that he is preparing for his latest trip.
Joseph Ratzinger responding to many readers' concern about his health writes:
With the slow loss of my physical and internal strength I have launched the pilgrimage to God's House. ”
Since his resignation in February 2013, the German-born Pope lives in a small monastery at the Vatican, along with four sisters and his personal secretary Georg Gänswein. He has been declaring for at least two years that Benedict XVI was disappearing like a candle, slowly and calmly. ”
The former Pope attends Mass every day, prays a lot, meets few visitors and answers a considerable number of correspondence. He also listens to television news in the evening and reads some daily Catholic media as well as theological publications.
A senior Vatican official last year passed through Pope Benedict XVI
He no longer manages to control his hands, he can no longer play the piano, he sees very badly, but he has perfect clarity, he remembers everything”.
