Blood clot formed in Hillary Clinton’s skull

Doctors predict full recovery for secretary of state

WASHINGTON — Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton developed a blood clot in her head but did not suffer a stroke or neurological damage, her doctors said Monday. They say they are confident she will make a full recovery.

In a statement that revealed the location of the clot, Clinton’s doctors said it is in the vein in the space between the brain and the skull behind the right ear. She is being treated with blood thinners to help dissolve the clot, the doctors said, and she will be released once the medication dose has been established.

Do you suppose there will be apologies from Hannity, West, Ingram and others who accused Clinton of faking illness? I know I can`t hold my breath that long!
