Refreshed by a two-day hospital stay, Cardinal John O'Connor celebrated Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York on Tuesday and said he'd stick around awhile.

Doctors subjected O'Connor, 71, to what he described Monday as "at least 350 cardiograms" and a stress test. But it wasn't all drudgery, the prelate confessed.
