Beau is "being treated" in a hospital according to NPR...
Joe is with him. No word yet on what he's being treated for. Yikes.

1. Just heard it on MSNBC and posted a thread in GD. They didn't mention
Joe is with him -- that makes it sound more serious. I'm holding him in my heart, healthy and happy.

If I hear anything I'll post here.

2. Apparently Joe was in Delaware anyway giving a couple of speeches, he was going
to return to DC for his weekly lunch w/Obama. What a good coincidence he was there!

3. You all probably already know, but he suffered a mild stroke, has full speech
and motor skills, and is expected to make a full recovery.

I've had a mild stroke and I hope he gets off as good as I did.

4. I just heard - they are now reporting that his speech is fine as are his motor skills.
Yet - he was transferred to another hospital.

He is only 41 and that's too young. :(

7. Didn't know he was transferred. As I've mentioned I had a mild stroke years ago
and I'm okay, didn't impact my life. I was assuming that his would be about the same, especially since he can talk and move. But transferring him to another hospital IS worrisome. Although, he IS the AG and Joe's son, and maybe with Joe's history Hospital #2 has some top notch diagnostic equipment and can be a little more thorough.
