His office said on Thursday that Senator John Vitman examined himself to a hospital for clinical depression treatment.
“Last night, Senator John Vitirman examined himself at the National Military Medical Center for Da Reed to receive clinical depression,” said a statement from the Democrats in Pennsylvania. “While John has been depressed and over his life, he has become severe in recent weeks.”
According to the statement, Fetterman was evaluated by the conference doctor on Monday, who recommended internal care at the Walter Reed Medical Center.
“John agreed, while receiving treatment on a voluntary basis,” his office said. “After John’s examination, the doctors in Walter Reed told us that John gets the care he needs, and he will return to himself soon.”
Giselle Barretto Vitirman, Vitman’s wife, tweeted the statement, adding: “After what he passed in the past year, no one wants to talk about his health less than John. I am proud of him to ask for help and get the care he needs.”
