Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI is suffering from ill health, Pope Francis<\/a> announced Wednesday as he finished his weekly general audience.<\/p>\n

“I would like to ask all of you for a special prayer for\u00a0Pope Emeritus Benedict, who, in silence, is sustaining the Church,” Pope Francis told attendees.<\/p>\n

POPE WARNS OF ‘ELEGANT DEMON’ LURKING IN THE VATICAN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

He added, “Let us remember him. He is very sick, asking the Lord to console and sustain him in this witness of love for the Church, until the end.”<\/p>\n

The Holy See Press Office later confirmed the pontiff’s announcement and said Benedict has taken a turn for the worse medically, according to a report in Catholic News Agency<\/a>.<\/p>\n

POPE SAYS SOCIETY DOES NOT ‘KNOW HOW TO LIVE’ WITH THE RISING PROPORTION OF ELDERLY CITIZENS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“I can confirm that in the last few hours there has been a worsening due to advancing age,” said Matt Bruni of the Holy See Press Office. “The situation at the moment remains under control, constantly followed by doctors.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Benedict was elected to the papacy<\/a> in 2005. He later claimed that he prayed he would not be chosen but was forced to accept what he believed God calling him to service.<\/p>\n

POPE FRANCIS WROTE A LETTER OF RESIGNATION IN 2013 IN CASE OF HEALTH IMPAIRMENTS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

In February 2013, at 85 years old, Benedict became the first pope in centuries to resign from his post.<\/p>\n

“I have come to the certainty that my strengths, due to an advanced age, are no longer suited to an adequate exercise,” he said at that time.<\/p>\n

Despite his optimism, the pope emeritus has expressed exhaustion at the longevity of his own life post-papacy.<\/p>\n

POPE CALLS FOR END TO ‘SENSELESS’ WAR IN UKRAINE DURING CHRISTMAS MESSAGE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Last year, Prefect of the Papal Household<\/a> Archbishop Georg G\u00e4nswein recounted conversations he has had with the aging former pontiff, noting that no other pope has lived to 94 years of age.<\/p>\n

“He tells me, \u2018I\u2019m nearly 94 years old, what do you want from me?\u2019 He didn\u2019t expect to live to this age,” G\u00e4nswein said. “He\u2019s even told me he didn\u2019t imagine it would take so long to travel the distance from the end of his pontificate to meet Saint Peter at the Gate.”<\/p>\n

POPE FRANCIS DESCRIBES PRESSURES OF THE PAPACY: ‘SOMETIMES, YOU FEEL YOU ARE NUMB’<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Francis and Benedict have remained close since the changing of the pontificate. The two often dine together and celebrate events such as birthdays in the Papal Apartments.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on his own advanced age, Pope Francis<\/a> has previously warned that the modern world has begun to forget the importance of the elderly, and that society is not sure how to handle citizens’ longer lives and advanced ages<\/p>\n

“We cannot speak about family without talking about the importance of the elderly among us,” Pope Francis said in the announcement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He added, “We don\u2019t quite know how to live this new stage of life \u2014 there are many plans for assistance for the old age, but few projects for existence.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
