Less than a week after having a “massive stroke,” Jerry Lawler is getting ready to leave the hospital and return to his house.
After the incident on Monday (06.02.23), the 73-year-old WWE veteran was treated in a critical care unit at a hospital in Fort Myers, Florida. However, a spokeswoman for the celebrity has since revealed he is out of the ICU and will return home on Friday (10.02.23).
A statement posted on Jerry’s Instagram page reads: “He has been moved from ICU and as of now is being discharged tomorrow to return to his Florida home for outpatient rehab for his limited speech and cognitive skills.
“Doctors hopeful for a full recovery and Jerry is looking forward to returning to his fans very soon.”
It comes after a picture of Lawler was released showing him giving a thumbs up from his hospital bed, while his former commentary partner Jim Ross revealed on Tuesday (07.02.23) that he had spoken to his friend after he was rushed to hospital. In a post on Twitter, JR wrote: “I spoke very briefly with @JerryLawler tonight. He’s obviously weak but I could understand his affected speech. “Jerry’s prognosis is positive but he needs all our thoughts and prayers. #LoveYaKing”
Lawler has experienced a number of health problems recently. He experienced a heart collapse in real time while commentating on a WWE Raw programme in 2012.
Six years later, in March 2018, he had a stroke at home in Memphis, Tennessee, which rendered him speechless for three days.
