Is This Really Mitch McConnell??!?! #MitchMcConnell #NewsUpdate (WHAS) LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Senator Mitch McConnell said he is continuing to recover after a recent fall and a mild case of pneumonia, assuring Kentuckians he remains engaged in Senate business despite being unable to return to the floor to vote. In a statement addressed to Kentuckians on Sunday, the Republican senator thanked supporters for their well wishes and acknowledged questions about his absence from the Senate. McConnell said he was hospitalized in June after suffering a fall last month leaving him briefly unconscious. He said doctors determined he did not sustain any broken bones or a concussion and ruled out more serious conditions, including a heart attack, stroke, tumors and hemorrhages. “While receiving excellent care over the past several weeks, I’ve also had to deal with a mild case of pneumonia,” the letter stated. The senator said he has since been transferred from the hospital to a rehabilitation center, where he is continuing to regain his strength under the guidance of his medical team. “I can assure you that I’ve been a good patient. At my age, I tend to do what my doctors tell me to do. I’ve submitted to every test they can think of to help figure out what caused this incident,” he explained. McConnell said his recovery is progressing but noted his doctors have advised him not to return to the Senate floor to vote yet. - @justinfreakin
