Pope Leo XIV thanked the faithful for their prayers following his discharge from Gemelli Hospital on October 17. During the Angelus prayer in St. Peter's Square on Sunday, the Pope expressed gratitude to those who prayed for him and specifically thanked the doctors, nurses, and staff at the hospital. He noted that his recent experience created a sense of closeness to those suffering from illness.

The Pope said he will gradually resume his activities. This follows comments from Dr. Stefano Margaritora, the physician who performed the Pope's surgery, who told Vatican News that the Pope is expected to recover fully and be able to travel within approximately ten days.

The Pope has received medical clearance for an upcoming apostolic journey to Uruguay, Argentina, and Peru, scheduled from November 6 to 17.
