Rome - Pope John Paul appeared on Sunday at his hospital window for the first time since taken ill; but he was weak and looking unwell physically, particularly from his face, he looked pale.  He was not speaking freely. However, his aide said that he was still "serving the Church in the cause of humanity."

The Pope was rushed to hospital last Tuesday with some breathing problem. Later on, his health improved but his devotees and well wishers all over the world were not satisfied by different bulletins released on his health.  They wanted to hear from him in person.

The Pope II decided to bless them with his brief appearance from the window Rome's Gemelli hospital, but he was feeling some difficulty while Speaking.
The Pope thanked the people in his message all over the world for their prayers for his recovery and their messages, which he said had moved him in a "particularly intense way."

At the end of a message read by an aide, the Pope delivered his blessing in a voice that was faint, hoarse and cracking. He then made the sign of the cross.

Dr. Raj Baldev, Cosmo Theorist from India, said," Pope's life is very precious, his blessings pacified  millions of souls who were in a state of anxiety  and prayed for his recovery." He said, "His face looked weak and eyes tired when he waved the crowd. The Pope did the very right thing by blessing the people in spite of his extreme weakness."
