Exploring the Unknown Area of a Pope's Inability to Perform Duties.

The Vatican has rules for when a pope dies or quits. But there are no rules for when a pope is very sick and can't do his job.

Pope Francis is very sick right now, but he is still in charge. However, this makes people wonder what would happen if he gets worse.

There are rules for when a regular bishop is sick, but not for the pope. Some experts want to make new rules for this situation.

These new rules would say that a group of cardinals would take charge if the pope can't. They would then choose a new pope if the old pope can't get better.

Right now, if a pope dies or quits, there are special rules for that. But these rules don't apply if the pope is just sick.
