Some 600 people in wheelchairs waited to have their time with Francis during the event Saturday. He moved down the rows to greet each person, doling out hugs and kisses as well as chatting. The pontiff, who has made championing the downtrodden a key plank of his papacy, lamented that society tends to hide physical fragility and reject the disabled.
