Pope John Paul II speaks softly after breathing aid surgery
Pope John Paul II remains on breathing support but advised not to speak for days after surgery to ease breathing. He spent a restful night at Gemelli hospital in Rome with no sign of lung infection and notes of improved breathing and relief. In Iraq, an explosion near U S troops north of Baghdad killed and wounded several soldiers as helicopters evacuated the injured. Witnesses described a loud blast and bloodied ground as Humvees and security forces blocked the area. The document also touches on Anglican debates over same sex blessings and North American attendance at Lambeth talks.
