Rep. Donald Norcross (D-NJ) is in “stable condition” after experiencing an “emergency medical event” in North Carolina over the weekend, his office announced Monday.
The 66-year-old congressman was admitted to UNC Rex Hospital in Raleigh on Sunday, and the issue is “likely related to his gallbladder,” according to a statement from his office.
“He is currently in good spirits and wants to thank the doctors, nurses, and support staff at UNC Rex Hospital for all their work on his behalf during his stay,” the congressman’s office said.
“When the Congressman is medically cleared to fly, he will be transferred back home to Cooper University Health Care in the coming days to complete his recovery,“ the statement continued.
