THE wife of US Secretary of State
John Kerry has moved to a rehabilitation hospital after doctors said her
condition had improved following a seizure.
On Thursday Teresa Heinz Kerry, 74, left Massachusetts General
Hospital in Boston, where she had been treated since falling ill on
Sunday, Kerry's personal spokesman Glen Johnson said in a statement.
Doctors
also upgraded her condition from "fair" to "good," meaning she could
move to the city's specialist Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital to focus
on her recovery, Johnson said.
"Doctors have concluded that Mrs
Heinz Kerry suffered a seizure on Sunday, but they are still determining
its precise cause," he said, adding "many possibilities have been ruled
out," such as stroke, heart attack or a brain tumour.
Kerry, 69,
will split his time between Boston and Washington and will resume his
official travel schedule as the top US diplomat soon, Johnson added.
