Billy Graham enjoys 'restful night' in hospital

A statement from Asheville's Mission Hospital on Saturday afternoon said Graham's pulmonologist reports he is maintaining the improvement he showed on Friday.
The 93-year-old evangelist will continue physical therapy to help his strength and mobility. Doctors said Graham stood and walked Friday during a physical therapy session. 


Doctors at the hospital in Asheville said Graham was able to stand and walk Friday during a physical therapy session.


Dr. Mark Hellreich, a pulmonologist treating Graham, said he's making good clinical progress and looks better since treatment with antibiotics began.


Graham has suffered from several ailments in recent years. He was admitted to the hospital Wednesday night after suffering from congestion, a cough and a slight fever that was later diagnosed as pneumonia.


Graham was able to take meals on Friday sitting in a chair while talking with hospital staff. No discharge date has been set. .
