As Francis works to regain his strength and is said to be improving, the Cardinal confirmed that he will have to “relearn to speak”.
On Friday Fernandez said: “The Pope is doing very well, but high-flow oxygen dries everything out.
“He needs to relearn how to speak, but his overall physical condition is as it was before.”
The Cardinal also dismissed rumours of his retirement which have plagued the Holy See since the Pope’s hospital admission on February 14.
