The Health Complications of Senator Dianne Feinstein.
TL;DR Summary
US Senator Dianne Feinstein, 89, suffered from encephalitis, a brain inflammation, and Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which can cause facial paralysis, after a bout of shingles that left her unable to sit on key committee. While the encephalitis resolved itself, she continues to deal with Ramsay Hunt syndrome. Her absence had delayed the Senate Judiciary Committee's efforts to confirm federal judges. Members of her own party have led calls for her to resign, saying she is no longer fit to serve constituents.
