Message on Joni Mitchell Website, Twitter Account Denies She's Comatose, Says She's Recovering

Contrary to rumors, Joni is not in a coma. See full statement at http://jonimitchell.com


Apr 28: Update on Joni's health (JoniMitchell.com)

Leslie Morris, who is with Joni in the hospital, has approved the following statement to be made through JoniMitchell.com: Contrary to rumors circulating on the Internet today, Joni is not in a coma. Joni is still in the hospital - but she comprehends, she’s alert, and she has her full senses. A full recovery is expected. The document obtained by a certain media outlet simply gives her longtime friend Leslie Morris the authority - in the absence of 24-hour doctor care - to make care decisions for Joni once she leaves the hospital. As we all know, Joni is a strong-willed woman and is nowhere near giving up the fight. Please continue to keep Joni in your thoughts. You may add your well wishes for her at the website WeLoveYouJoni.com

As a single woman/no children, with some friends who are the same, we have made sure we have someone for medical directives - actually the doctors here require it. Good that she has a good friend who can step in.

Thanks for the link - I will go express get well wishes.
