Mayor Thomas M. Menino is expected to spend the Thanksgiving holiday at Brigham and Women’s, where Menino continues tests and treatment for severe back pain, said his spokeswoman, Dot Joyce.
“He’s much better than he was last week,” said Joyce. “Though he is disappointed he can’t attend his regular Thanksgiving events.” Menino generally spends the holiday making the rounds among organizations that serve Thanksgiving meals for people who need them, she said.
