Update: Sen. Patrick Leahy recovering 'comfortably' after surgery to repair broken hip
Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vermont, was "comfortably recovering" Friday from surgery to repair his broken hip suffered in a fall Wednesday night at his home in McLean, Virginia, according to a statement from his office.
Doctors did hip replacement surgery, which was completed Thursday afternoon. Leahy is expected to begin physical therapy after the hip is sufficiently healed. Leahy and his wife, Marcelle, said they were "overwhelmed and humbled" by the outpouring of kind and encouraging messages they received.
