Melania Trump feels 'great,' going home 'soon' from hospital
Source: USA Today
Melania Trump is still in the hospital after her kidney procedure but she tweeted Wednesday that she feels "great" and expects to return to the White House soon. Meanwhile, President Trump visited her in the hospital for the third straight day.
The first lady rarely hangs out on Twitter, at least compared to her husband, so her tweet was her first comment since she was hospitalized at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for an unspecified embolization to treat a benign kidney condition on Monday.
Her last tweet, the day before, was a "Happy Mother's Day" message, featuring a picture of a huge rose.
Trump expressed "sincere" thanks to the staff at Walter Reed who treated her and to her well-wishers.

(7,725 posts)fuck off. I have no sympathy for either. They're bottom feeders and you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear. We're supposed to be so touched and empathetic...while they crush our country? Shit happens to all of us, only difference? We paid her hospital bill without any qualifications. Healthcare is a human right. poor dear. The pill doctor got the heave ho and now she's in pain at the hospital? curious.

Lovely picture of Trump there, walking across the lawn, umbrella in hand, so as not to get the dead animal on top of his head wet. I see he has all of his friends with him as well. What a loathsome creature he is.

(13,904 posts)hospitals are a great place to pick up some pretty nasty infections. She must be pretty desperate to want to stay as long as she has. It's either that or more is going on with her than we know.

surgery and have an incision that could get infected.
She may have done a two-fer. I did when I had my hysterectomy. Had the plastic surgeon lined up to come in after and do a tummy tuck
through my old C-section incision, which the gynecologist opened for the hysterectomy. The nurses were all congratulating me on doubling up!
My guess is that Melania decided to have some plastic surgery done at the same time.

(6,936 posts)My ACA plan is so fucked up because of Trump and Republicans efforts to TRASH it that it now carries a deductible of over $5,000.00 when last year it was $500.00.
Basically the same plan I bought on my own from BCBS before the ACA and paid about $300 per month is now carrying a premium of about $1200 per month. That's a $300 per month increase from just last year.
I go on Medicare in August,anyone thinking that's some free ride is mistaken,it will actually cost more than my ACA premium by over $100 per month. Can't afford to live,can't afford to die.
