Three weeks after heart bypass
surgery, former President Bill Clinton is taking long walks and
enjoying the reception from his neighbors.
His wife, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, says the former
president is making progress and getting stronger every day. He is
recuperating at their hom in Chappaqua, New York.
Clinton had quadruple bypass surgery on September sixth at New
York Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia in Manhattan after complaining
of prolonged chest pain and shortness of breath. Doctors who
performed the four-hour operation found that Clinton`s heart
disease was extensive, with blockages in some arteries well over 90
percent.
