Palace reports improvement in condition of Thailand's hospitalized 81-year-old king

BANGKOK — The royal palace says the health of Thailand's hospitalized 81-year-old King Bhumibol Adulyadej has improved, with his temperature back to normal and his appetite returning.

The palace announced Wednesday night that the king was able to eat more and sleep better, so doctors had reduced the use of antibiotics and glucose drip with which he was being treated.

He was admitted to Bangkok's Siriraj Hospital on Saturday night. Officials have not announced the cause of his fever and fatigue.

In October 2007, Bhumibol was hospitalized for three weeks with symptoms of a minor stroke. The king is the world's longest-serving monarch.

That is good news!! Thailand is in enough trouble we need the King to stay strong and hopefully persuade the Government to bring together the two sides dividing this wonderful country. I look forward to seeing the roadmap our Prime Minister promised the UN but will not hold my breath because he hasn't shown much sign of taking the middle road so far!!He is in the pocket of PAD!!
