You are the first I have seen who has mentioned Fr. Corapi’s recent health issues. That whole situation was never fully disclosed either.

Yes, and imho, an important consideration.

Yes, for in my view, that was the start of his withdrawal.

We never saw much of him after that, when we did he looked terrible.

Whatever happens now or has happened in the recent past, the Holy Spirit used him to ignite a fire in the hearts of many lukewarm Catholics and I am grateful to have been one of them.

Our mother, Mary tells us always, pray, pray, pray.

The health issues aren't terribly recent - I remember Fr. Corapi mentioning them several years back when I listened to him on the radio.

But remember too that he spent part of his life as a drug addict - that certainly has left some amount of permanent damage to his body.

But the path he has chosen is one where he isn't just going to linger around and wait to die; he's moving on.

I think Salvation has a good point as well - if there is any component about this that involves the Seal of Confession, it may be completely impossible for Fr. Corapi to do anything on any time frame that would clear his good name.
