Get well soon, Metropolitan Irenaeus. The respiratory infection sounds rough—hope the Liturgy at St. Panteleimon on Friday brings you some comfort even if you’re not celebrating name day. We’ll send something to the St. Paraskevi account instead of flowers.

May the bishop recover quickly. A respiratory infection is no joke, especially at his age. It's good that instead of celebrating, people flock to the church of St. Paraskeva, I will also transfer a little to that IBAN.
