Coretta Scott King update: She had a stroke Tuesday

Coretta Scott King remains in Atlanta's Piedmont Hospital in fair condition after being admitted yesterday.

"My family and I are overwhelmed by the outpouring of care and support that are being sent from around the world," Martin Luther King III said in a statement. "Please continue to keep her and us in your thoughts and prayers as she moves towards a speedy and complete recovery."

Coretta King's oldest son did not say why his mother was admitted to Piedmont Hospital, but people close to her say she has had several small strokes since heart problems were first diagnosed in earlier this year and suffered a more serious stroke Tuesday.

Hospital spokeswoman Diana Lewis confirmed King was admitted but declined to provide other details other than that King was in fair condition and was resting comfortably.

It is not known how extensive the stroke was or how long she is expected to remain in hospital.

My prayers go out to her in hopes that she makes a swift recovery.
