Il Collegio Cardinalizio - ARCHIVIO ANNO 2014

[Phantom]

Ricordo che oggi, 20 dicembre, compie 80 anni il Card. Julius Riyadi Darmaatmadja, SJ, Arcivescovo emerito di Giacarta.
Lascio a chi di dovere (Vaticanista, suppongo) il consueto schema riassuntivo.

Esatto.
Posso fare io?

Compie oggi 80 anni il cardinale Julius Riyadi Darmaatmadja SJ, arcivescovo emerito di Jakarta, Indonesia; creato cardinale da san Giovanni Paolo II il 26 novembre 1994; uscendo così dalle fila degli elettori.
I cardinali elettori scendono così a 111 e i non elettori salgono a 97.
Perdendo diritto di partecipare ad eventuali conclavi, viene meno la presenza tra gli elettori di cardinali indonesiani e di cardinali gesuiti.

Medical Update Regarding Cardinal George - December 31, 2014

Cardinal George has been dropped from the clinical trial group that was being given an antibody drug in order to contain or reduce cancer. Recent scans showed that this experimental drug has not been effective in his case, but the physicians and others who are overseeing this trial assured him that the information that they had gathered during his course of treatment will be of benefit to others.

The Cardinal will meet with his physicians at Loyola University Hospital in January in order to discuss how best to address some of the side effects of his cancer, which so far has not spread to any vital organs. He is at peace, but he counts on everyone's prayers that he might be of service to the Lord and His Church in the time left to him.

Cardinal George would like to thank all those who have been praying for him, and asks them to continue to do so. You and those you love are remembered in his prayers as well. Cardinal George wishes you a blessed New Year.
