Schock Statement on Senator Mark Kirk’s Medical Condition
Washington,
Jan 23, 2012 -
Congressman Aaron Schock (R-IL) issued the following statement after learning of the news that Senator Mark Kirk admitted himself to Lake Forest Hospital over the weekend. It was reported today by Senator Kirk’s office that the Senator suffered a stroke over the weekend:
“I was shocked to learn of the news today that Senator Mark Kirk was admitted to the hospital over the weekend. It’s never easy to see a good friend and colleague go through such a sudden and difficult medical situation. The reports that Mark’s surgery was successful this morning is very welcome news during this tough time. Mark has been a champion for Illinois both as a member of the House of Representatives and now as a United States Senator. I look forward to the day he will return to the Capitol to continue his fight on behalf of the citizens of Illinois.
“My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family during this difficult period of time.”
