Attorney General Discharged From Hospital The Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - Attorney General John Ashcroft was released from the hospital Sunday, five days after surgery to remove his gallbladder. Ashcroft, 61, will stay in his Washington home for some "quiet rest" as he continues to recuperate, Justice Department spokesman Mark Corallo said.
Deputy Attorney General James Comey will continue to run the department until Ashcroft returns.
Ashcroft was admitted March 4 to George Washington University Hospital, suffering from a severe case of gallstone pancreatitis. The gallbladder was removed to prevent a recurrence of the sometimes-fatal illness.

I guess just being home is more comfortable than being in hospital.

50 mg of demorol would have *me* resting comfortably. Unfortunately they don't write out scripts for the stuff. I was given vicodin.

script = scrip
whatever...I'm too tired.

I pray that all went well with General Ashcroft. He is a good man. I may not agree with him completely, but there are few that are as honest and with as much integrity as him.
Blessings, Bobo
