Sen. Johnson Continues to Show More Improvement By Daphne Retter \| 6:17 PM; Jan. 25, 2007 \| Sen. Tim Johnson, D-S.D., is showing continued improvement nearly six weeks after he was rushed to George Washington University Hospital for a brain hemorrhage, but his return to work appears to remain a distant proposition. “Senator Johnson is showing evidence of more functional, spontaneous speech and is indicating preferences. He is answering questions and following commands appropriately,” said Dr. Philip Marion, medical director of the hospital’s Department of Rehabilitative Medicine, where Johnson is being treated as an inpatient. Johnson was moved from the intensive care unit Jan. 11. According to a statement released by his office Thursday, Johnson’s has been watching movies with his family when he is not working with physical and speech therapists. He has asked that his television be tuned to CNN, and his wife Barbara said he is aware that President Bush mentioned him in the State of the Union address. “Tim is following the news closely and was honored that the President remembered him,” she said. Johnson’s absence has left the Democrats with only a 50-49 voting advantage. cqpolitics.com
