US Senator McConnell discharged from hospital but not yet 'cleared' to return to work
“I’m still working hard to get back to my full schedule of work in the Senate and in Kentucky, keeping up with intense physical therapy per my doctors’ orders," McConnell said in a statement.
US Senator Mitch McConnell was discharged from the hospital on Monday after a fall but has not yet been medically cleared to return to work, according to a statement from the Office of the Attending Physician (OAP). The OAP stated that McConnell is undergoing "multiple sessions a day designed to rebuild strength and reduce the risk of future falls." McConnell, who had polio as a child, was hospitalized in June after a fall that left him briefly unconscious, and he later developed pneumonia. He expressed regret about missing Kentucky's annual Fancy Farm picnic, noting, "I hate that I'll miss the fun this year, but I'm sending my best wishes to the St. Jerome community for a successful picnic."
