Václav Havel feeling better

The former president Václav Havel who was hospitalized with a heart problem over the weekend is reported to be feeling better. Mr. Havel was hospitalized with heart arrhythmia on Saturday night but is now said to be out of danger. He will remain in hospital for another day or two for monitoring. His private secretary Jakub Hladík said Mr. Havel had had a busy schedule in recent weeks and needed to get some rest. The media have not been told which hospital he is in, but Vaclav Havel sent them a message saying he was feeling much better and hoped to attend the premiere of a new documentary about his life and work called Citizen Havel.
