Feeling Ill, Richard Daley, Former Mayor of Chicago, Is in I.C.U.

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS FEB. 1, 2014

CHICAGO — Former Mayor Richard M. Daley of Chicago was hospitalized in an intensive care unit Saturday after feeling ill while returning to the city from a business trip.

Mr. Daley had complained several times Friday that he was feeling ill and disoriented during a conference he attended in Arizona as part of his work for the law firm Katten Muchin Rosenman, said his spokeswoman, Jackie Heard. When the conference was over, Mr. Daley flew back to Chicago and his family arranged to have an ambulance take him directly to Northwestern Memorial Hospital.

“Mayor Daley has been a very healthy man and he rarely complains of feeling ill. So for him to complain more than once about not feeling quite right, of course that causes alarm,” Ms. Heard said.

Mr. Daley, 71, walked off the plane in Chicago before getting into the ambulance, Ms. Heard said.
