The wife of Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. told the Chicago Tribune on Wednesday that she’s “hopeful” doctors will talk about her husband’s medical problems with the public soon. The statement came as the mystery builds about what prompted Jackson to take a leave of absence last month.
“I’m hopeful that my husband’s doctors will be able to release something soon,” Jackson’s wife, Chicago Alderman Sandi Jackson, told the newspaper. “I’m in constant talks with them about Jesse’s condition and his medical prognosis going forward.”
