Evangelist Billy Graham was released from a hospital Thursday, nearly two weeks after he was admitted for intestinal bleeding, officials said.
Doctors identified the source of Graham’s bleeding during a colonoscopy last week, said Merrill Gregory, a spokeswoman for Mission Health & Hospitals in Asheville. Physicians were able to treat the condition.
”˜”˜We have been pleased that he has been able to come back from this incident as well as he has,’’ said Dr. Lucian Rice, Graham’s personal physician. ”˜”˜He will continue to have therapy at home, and I feel that he can have a very good recovery.’’
Rice said he expects the 88-year-old evangelist will continue to regain his strength.
I am thankful for Billy Graham’s healing. God bless this wonderful servant of the Lord!
May God be with him.
