This reporter made an error last week in reporting that Blake Heaton was at Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane. He is in Deaconness Hospital. I apologize for my mistake. A procedure was perfomed last week to help stop the bleeding in his bladder. For awhile, they were able to move him out of I.C.U. but unfortunately, a fever developed and he had to be moved back to I.C.U. There have been no further reports in a couple of days.
