Governors doing fine after surgeries
The governors of New York and Oregon are doing fine after each underwent surgery.
New York Gov. David Paterson had a successful cataract surgery, spokeswoman Erin Duggan said, and planned to resume his normal schedule today. Paterson, 54, is legally blind. The cataract was discovered during a procedure last month to relieve pain from acute glaucoma.
Oregon Gov. Ted Kulongoski, 68, planned to leave Salem Hospital today after having his gall bladder removed, said spokeswoman Anna Richter Taylor. He is expected to be out of the office for most of the week.
