Pope Francis was discharged from a Rome hospital on Saturday after being treated for bronchitis. Before leaving, he had an emotional moment with a couple whose 5-year-old daughter had died at the hospital the night before. His recovery has been celebrated by Catholics and non-Catholics alike, with the Pope himself leaving the hospital with a quip to journalists and a gesture of surprise when a boy showed him his arm cast.
