Sen. Johnson is asking for updates from his staff

Sen. Tim Johnson (D-S.D.) is requesting more contact with his office and asking for updates from his staff as he continues to recover from an injury to his brain.

"Senator Johnson is actively making decisions about his healthcare and expressing his opinions about his daily activities," said a statement from Philip Marion, medical director for the Department of Rehabilitative Medicine at George Washington University Hospital.

Johnson, who suffered from a cerebral arteriovenous malformation Dec. 13 that resulted in bleeding in the brain, has been "reading the newspaper and following news," according to his office.

This is great news indeed! I can imagine he wants updates, considering how the Republican party is acting in the Senate he's probably chomping at the bit to get back in the game. It's definitely good to see him making progress. One way or another it will take a while to recover from someone drilling a hole in your head. From his progress I would expect that he would start campaigning before too long. OK, I'm rushing him I know, but we've got so much work to do to get a lot more Democrats into the Senate to break the Republican filibuster on checks on this imperial presidency that the GOP is abusing.
