'Remarkably
healthy' Billy Graham leaves hospital
By Cathy Lynn Grossman, USA TODAY
Evangelist Billy Graham, whose doctor calls him "remarkably
healthy" for age 93, checked out of an Asheville, N.C., hospital
Tuesday after two days of treatment for bronchitis.
He returned to his home in Montreat, N.C., after checking into
Mission Hospital Saturday evening with a fever. According to a
press release from his long-time spokesman, A. Larry Ross,
Graham's pulmonologist, Dr. Daniel Fertel, said
"Mr. Graham had a quick recovery and responded very well to
his treatment. Catching these types of pulmonary infections early
is crucial for a fast recovery, as was the case for Mr. Graham.
Despite this illness he remains remarkably healthy for a
93-year-old man."
Graham was in good spirits and, Ross says, he praised the hospital
staff, while admiting, "It is never easy going to the hospital."
He also thanked all who sent him prayers and letters, saying
Such an outpouring of love and support is always a blessing
but was especially appreciated during my hospitalization.
Once back to his mountaintop log cabin, Graham is expected to
resume physical therapy and carry on with his ministry and writing
projects.
