This past Monday, 10 November, Abbot Robert was hospitalized with pneumonia in Winchester Medical Center. He has been responding very well to antibiotics and oxygen. He’s been in very good spirits and has been issuing directives as if from his office at the Abbey. He’s expected home before the weekend.
