Bishop Lee Hospitalized for Possible Stroke
11/08/2006

The Bishop of Virginia, the Rt. Rev. Peter J. Lee, was hospitalized Tuesday for what doctors believe may have been a minor stroke.

Bishop Lee was voting with his wife before 9 a.m. when he experienced “some mild disorientation” that concerned them both enough for them to go to the emergency room at St. Mary's Hospital in Richmond, according to diocesan secretary Peter Getlein.

Following tests, Bishop Lee was admitted for observation. Mr. Getlein noted that Bishop Lee’s health has been good since he recovered from triple heart bypass surgery in January 2005.
