Each day he is up and about for a bit longer. Half of the stainless steel wires used to stitch together his torn thigh have been removed. Doctors predicted that the Governor would leave the hospital in a week or so, should...
...four hours the doctors worked, cleaning the wounds, removing bone splinters from the Governor's chest cavity, stitching a hole in one lung, treating the wounds in his thigh and wrist. At week's end doctors said his condition was satisfactory...
