Pope was advised to limit air travel: report
Worldwide, Daily news | ankakh | February 20, 2013 16:35Pope Benedict XVI is nearly blind in one eye and was advised by his doctor to limit air travel because of his high blood pressure, the website Vatican Insider reported on Wednesday.
The report also said the 85-year-old pontiff often has problems sleeping and has fallen out of bed several times in recent years on foreign trips, making him tired in public appearances.
The report was based on indiscretions from papal aides that Vatican affairs specialist Marco Tosatti said he had promised to keep secret until the end of the pontificate on February 28.
The report said Benedict even began using a walking stick to get around his own residence last year because his left hip and knee were hurting.
