Paul Pelosi is expected to make a full recovery despite sustaining "serious" injuries after undergoing brain surgery following an attack in the early hours of Friday morning.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's spokesperson Drew Hammill announced Friday afternoon that her husband, 82, had a "successful surgery" to repair a "fractured skull" after he was violently assaulted with a hammer in their San Francisco home.
"Mr. Pelosi was admitted to Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital where he underwent successful surgery to repair a skull fracture and serious injuries to his right arm and hands," Hammill said in a statement. "His doctors expect a full recovery."
Paul was transported to Zuckerberg in stable condition earlier Friday when he was treated for facial injuries before undergoing brain surgery. Secret Service agents were stationed at the hospital.

I'm relieved he's going to be okay.

(20,878 posts)1. My late husband had a severe head injury
He was a young man at the time and ended up in a coma for two weeks.
I don't think he was ever right after that.
He died in May of vascular dementia, a horrible brain disease that can be triggered by a head injury.
I hope that Paul Pelosi recovers!

My husband was 85.
It was horrific!
What role did the head injury contribute to his awful death?
WHAT?
