BEIRUT: Maronite Patriarch Beshara Rai is in good shape and will leave the hospital next week, his spokesman announced Saturday, a day after he underwent surgery to treat a brain hemorrhage.
“His health is improving, and he will leave hospital by the beginning of next week, when he will spend a period of rest in the Patriarchal Palace,” Walid Ghayyad said in a statement.
Rai was admitted to an eye and ear hospital in Naccashe due to a trauma, and was then transferred to Al-Maounat Hospital in Jbeil where the patriarch underwent surgery to treat a "benign" brain hemorrhage.
He was visited by many political and religious officials at the hospital, including Lebanese Forces MP Strida Geagea and former Maronite Patriarch Nasrallah Boutros Sfeir.
