McCain’s Wife Improves After Stroke
Sen. John McCain’s wife was moved out of an intensive care unit, two days after she had a stroke, and was expected to be released from a Phoenix hospital in a few days.
Cindy McCain, 49, suffered minor bleeding in her brain when a blood vessel ruptured Monday, possibly because of a spike in blood pressure, said Robert Spetzler, director of the Barrow Neurological Institute at St. Joseph’s Hospital.
The bleeding stopped and her speech has improved after being mildly affected, the Arizona Republican said in a statement.
