"Towards the end of the Senate Democratic retreat today, Senator John Fetterman began feeling lightheaded," a statement from his office read.

The office said Fetterman, D-Penn., is in "good spirits and talking with his staff and family."

I sincerely wonder whether Fetterlump ever will get better. Perhaps his condition during the campaign was as good as it will be.

mountaineer:
Sounds like it's time to appoint the lovely Gisele to his Senate seat.

Probably.  The American Stroke Association says that "the most rapid recovery usually occurs during the first three to four months after a stroke," but people can continue to make some progress depending on the quantity and quality of rehab efforts.  I'm sure the floor of the Senate is a great place for that.   **nononono*

Meanwhile ...


--- Quote ---The 164-year-old Senate chamber was not designed for wires and screens. Senators aren’t even allowed to use their phones when they’re inside. But to help with freshman Senator John Fetterman’s stroke recovery, the chamber just got a digital upgrade.

As Fetterman learns how to do his new job while struggling with lingering auditory processing issues resulting from the stroke, he’s relying on some extra tech. The new assistive technology installed in his workspaces requires some adjustment from colleagues in an institution known for its stagnancy. But in securing the devices that are helping him begin a new job during a very public recovery process, advocates say Fetterman is forging a path for people with disabilities and health challenges to make it in public office.

Probably the game plan all along.
