ROME - Pope Francis’ recovery from surgery is going well, but doctors advised him not to deliver his Sunday blessing from a hospital balcony to avoid strain on his abdomen.

A mesh prosthetic was inserted into the abdominal wall to help it heal and doctors want it to settle and attach properly to avoid another operation if it breaks, he added.Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni said the Pope would say Sunday’s traditional noon Angelus prayer in his hospital suite and the faithful could say it at the same time.

All medical parameters were within the norm, there were no cardiac problems and complete healing of the abdominal scars would take about three months, he added.Pope Francis had part of one lung removed because of an illness when he was 21 years old in his native Argentina. He has trips to Portugal on Aug 2 to 6 for World Youth Day and to visit the Shrine of Fatima, and to Mongolia from Aug 31 to Sept 4, one of the remotest places he will have visited.
