The pope slept and is resting," the Vatican statement said. The Vatican had said late Sunday his condition remains critical and he is suffering from kidney impairment, although he was able to attend Mass at Gemelli hospital Sunday morning with medical staff.

ROME and LONDON -- Pope Francis is "resting" on Monday morning after spending his 10th night in the hospital, the Vatican press office said. "The night passed well, the Pope slept and is resting," the office said in a short statement.

Vatican says Pope Francis remains in critical condition and blood tests show early kidney failure but he remains alert and “well-oriented.”
