Is there still a chance the Pope could pull through?

[_TJ_]

Reports say he's still conscious and talking. He must be as strong
as a horse!

1. God only knows.

2. Vatican said his condition was "irreversible"

His kidneys shut down.

3. Doesn't say much for their belief in miracles, now does it? . . .

n/t

4. I was wondering the same thing.

If he does, won't the cable networks be embarrassed. If he should recover, then in a week or so, relapse, they can just rerun this programming.

5. I would think that if there

was any chance they would have taken him to the hospital. He wanted to be at his home so I doubt that they see any chance.

6. I am so impressed by his constitution

He's been a sick, frail old man for so long. To hang on the point
of death for days like this - at 85 - is amazing to me. If he
makes it my jaw will be on the floor for a month.

8. My 81-year-old father lived 13 days....

after his kidneys shut down and he had a simultaneous heart attack. He was lucid and able to eat pureed food for about the first week.

7. APriest on Cnn yesterday said "Yes, if we pray hard enough"

So it's all up to the Catholics, I guess.

I thougth it was a pretty insensitive thing to say.

9. He's DEAD !

Just breaking :(

10. As long as Jeb is praying for him

anything is possible

[Zynx]

11. Uh, no.

He's dead.

[ghostsofgiants]

12. Nope, he was just confirmed as dead on CNN.

13. It's a little late at this, point TJ_
