VATICAN CITY, March 30 (Reuters) - Following is the
text of the statement on Pope John Paul's health
issued by Vatican on Wednesday by spokesman Joaquin
Navarro-Valls. The statement was issued in Italian and
translated into English by Reuters.
"The Holy Father continues his slow and progressive
convalescence.
The Pope is spending many hours of the day in an
armchair, he celebrates Holy Mass in his private
chapel and is in working contact with his aides,
directly following the activity of the Holy See and
the Church.
To improve his calorific intake and promote an
efficient recovery of his strength, nutrition via the
positioning of a nasal-gastric tube has begun.
Public audiences still remain suspended.
Health assistance is provided by the personnel of the
Health and Hygiene Department of Vatican City under
the direction of Doctor Renato Buzzonetti, personal
doctor of the Holy Father.
