Recovering Pope Begins Speaking

From BBC NEWS | Europe | Recovering Pope begins speaking:



"Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, a senior Vatican official, said Pope John Paul II conducted a working meeting at Rome's Gemelli Hospital.



The pontiff spoke in both Italian and German during the meeting, the cardinal told reporters.



The Pope was admitted to hospital last week suffering from breathing problems, and underwent an emergency tracheotomy.



'The Holy Father spoke to me in German and Italian. He was very alert. He will be working on some of the documentation that I brought to him,' Cardinal Ratzinger said as he left the hospital."
