Johnson Conscious After Brain Surgery |
2006-12-19 |
Sen. Tim Johnson has been conscious at times since his emergency brain surgery last week, his spokeswoman said Monday. But he is currently being sedated so he can rest. The South Dakota Democrat has made it through the first 72 hours since the Wednesday evening brain surgery, spokeswoman Julianne Fisher said, a benchmark that doctors consider a good sign for recovery. The senator remains in critical but stable condition, she added. "Oh, man! My head! What the hell was in that drink?" |

#5 Have there been any actual sightings? Maybe they'll try to pull a Castro. |

#4 But if he was a Republican, Harry Reid would be over there stepping on his oxygen hose. |

#3 That's OK, Bobby. Senators are twits regardless of party. |

#2 Yeah, but he can still be Senator, right? Sorry. I'm ashamed of myself.... I DO hope he recovers, Democrat or not. |

#1 Functional recovery for the senator will have a lot to do with his ability to speak & understand. |
