Fmr. Gov. Ridge, 75, suffered a stroke on June 16, as Daily Voice previously reported.
“Tom wants everyone to know how much he appreciates all those who have reached out to offer their prayers, words of encouragement and love,” said former Pennsylvania First Lady Michele Ridge. “It means so much to all of us. Tom hasn’t lost his sense of humor nor his determination as he begins this important therapy. We are grateful for all of the wonderful healthcare professionals who have and will continue to help us along his path to recovery.”
Upon leaving the hospital, he was immediately transferred to a rehabilitation facility also located in the Washington, D.C. area.
