A Vatican spokesperson had no comment on the report and the former pope’s personal secretary, Archbishop Georg Ganswein, did not immediately return a call asking for comment. Seewald said Benedict’s voice is barely audible - echoing something other visitors have said for months - and that the former pope told him he might pick up writing again if he regains his strength.

Georg Ratzinger died on July 1 aged 96. The two brothers were ordained priests on the same day in 1951.

May he have a speedy recovery

Judgement is near...

We already knew he was 'seriously ill'. The guy believes in an imaginary sky fairy and was the head of the world's largest organized pedophilia ring

He may get well soon.

Think of the children he let down, he has had his life and a freedom he did not deserve.

93 year old Joe Ratz is sick.

I guess pedophilia will do that too you!

May God bless him

May God Almighty grant him speedy recovery, Amen!

I was in Warsaw the day that Pope Benedict spoke to the Polish people in their own language. I am not Catholic, I'm not even Christian, but I will remember that day for the rest of my life. It was a day of peace. I wish him well.

That's what he gets for getting mixed up with religion.

He has shingles

Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger, a great mind. Powerful brain. Sad to know. Wish a best recover. Pontifex VaticanNews

Good

If I hear any comment along the lines of 'The pope/ curia are not responsible for the crimes and failures of their secretive, centrally-controlled hierarchy', I will flip the table.

Get well soon Pope Benedict XVI

Devil👹

I thought he was dead!

God bless Pope

He's over 90 yrs old, that's a darn looong life already!

INTERESTING that the MESSAGE appears ONLY 24H AFTER my TWITT! Why did he actually quit? Or, was he forced to make his seat free to: 1)a longtime 'SAVIOUR' of MILLIONS CHILDREN (of an whole continent) 2)who OBTAINED a WHITE Lamboghini & 3) is INTERESTED in SPACE?

Lord have mercy

All moaslem will be very happy to know this.

Bencjacobs He was not 'decent.' He was the Prefect for the Congregation of Doctrine of the Faith during the ENTIRE sex abuse cover-up.

💁🏾

Him?

Bencjacobs Pretty sure anyone over 90 is gravely ill...just in general.

Lucifer is stoking the fire, in anticipation of his arrival. avesatanis

Good! No more adrenochrome

Die

Get better!! 🌺

Bye girl, bout time

I am an ex catholic. About time!

The strangest Pope situation ever

Bencjacobs Good. See ya Ratzo.

Pope on the ropes.

Seriously ILL? He is 93 years old!!! Its called being old and lived a pretty darn long good life!

I'm not catholic but he seemed to be a decent man
