She had a cerebral aneurysm and surgery in early December, after surgery encephalitis developed on the brain spending nearly 2 months in Neuro ICU at Lenox Hill. Thankfully she is currently in an acute neurological rehabilitation and will soon go to a sub acute facility for a longer term of extensive neurological and physical rehabilitation.
