Vatican City, Feb 27, 2005 / 22:00 pm
This morning Holy See Press Office Director Joaquin Navarro-Valls gave journalists a medical bulletin outlining the current state of the Pope's health.
In it, he said that, "The Holy Father's post-operative phase is taking place without complications”, and that, "His general condition and biological parameters continue to be good.”
"The Holy Father”, he said, “is eating regularly, spends some hours in an armchair and has begun exercises to rehabilitate breathing and phonation.”
Navarro-Valls added that barring any unforeseen circumstances, that the next official communique will be given on Thursday, March 3rd.
