Pope Francis is embracing the family
of Indi Gregory, an eight-month-old incurably ill British girl
whose life support is set to be pulled foiling a bid to get her
to a Vatican-owned Rome children's hospital after receiving
last-minute Italian citizenship, and the pontiff is praying for
them and her, the Vatican said Saturday.
Pope Francis "embraces the family of little Indi Gregory, her
father and mother, prays for them and for her, and turns his
thoughts to all the children who in these same hours throughout
the world live in pain or risk their lives because of illness
and war", said the director of the Holy See Press Office, Matteo
Bruni.
Indi's life support is set to be imminently turned off after a
British judge rejected the umpteenth appeal from her parents.
