An Update on Pope Shenouda III
The health problems of Pope Shenouda III, the head of the Coptic Church, have been mentioned on this blog in the recent past. The papal residence in Cairo just released a statement on his condition:
His Holiness Pope Shenouda III had a successful spinal surgery at the Cleveland Clinic on Sunday, October 22, 2006. The surgery and immediate recovery have been excellent. His Holiness the Pope is currently receiving routine physical therapy, which is the natural follow-up to such surgery....Read the whole thing. May God grant Pope Shenouda III speedy healing and many (more) blessed years.

I was at the clinic this morning for physical therapy. I was hoping he would be there at the same time. No luck!
