FROM FOX NEWS: Sen. John Fetterman shared a graphic recovery photo Saturday — two days after a fall near his Pennsylvania home sent him to a Pittsburgh hospital with a facial injury caused by a ventricular fibrillation flare-up.
Fetterman, D-Pa., posted the close-up selfie on X on Nov. 15, showing a stitched gash across his cheek as he held an iced coffee.
A spokesperson said the senator was out for a morning walk near his home in Braddock when he suddenly became light-headed, collapsed and struck his face. Doctors later determined the fall was triggered by a flare-up of ventricular fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm that can cause dizziness or sudden loss of balance.
“20 stitches later and a full recovery, I’m back home with @giselefetterman and the kids,” he wrote. “I’m overwhelmed + profoundly grateful for all the well-wishes. Truly. Grateful for @UPMC for the incredible medical care that put me back together. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
“See you back in DC.”
