NSW: Clancy recovering well in hospital

Outgoing Sydney Archbishop, Cardinal EDWARD CLANCY is recovering well in hospital after
undergoing surgery last week.

A spokeswoman for the Catholic Church says it's not known when Cardinal CLANCY will
be released from St Vincent's Private Hospital.

The Cardinal underwent surgery last week to clear a minor obstruction to the bowel
after experiencing severe abdominal pain.

Cardinal CLANCY missed the Easter ceremonies at St Mary's Cathedral which were to be
his last before Dr GEORGE PELL becomes Sydney Archbishop on May 10.
