Report: Congressman Pascrell Suffers Setback
Rep. Bill Pascrell Jr. suffered a setback during his extended hospitalization this week, and the 87-year-old congressman needed “breathing assistance,” his staff said.
Pascrell has been at St. Joseph’s University Hospital since he checked himself in on July 14 for what his staff said was treatment for a fever.
Pascrell chief of staff, Ben Rich, issued an update on his condition on Wednesday afternoon.
“While recovering from a respiratory infection in the hospital, Congressman Pascrell had a setback,” Rich said. “Since then the medical professionals at St Joe’s have given the congressman breathing assistance and are monitoring his condition.
“Doctors tell us he continues to improve and remain hopeful for a complete recovery,” Rich added.
