Fear for Pope Francis.
At the beginning of this morning's general audience, the Pope entered the Paul VI Hall on foot, leaning on his cane. But a support at the base of the same support broke and the Pope was seen to falter for a few moments.
Then he continued, still on foot, but arm in arm with Monsignor Leonardo Sapienza and his assistant who took the now unsafe stick in his hand.
Francis then calmly conducted the audience and greeted the faithful while moving around in his wheelchair.
