Zell Miller falls ill during speech in Gainesville

Associated Press


GAINESVILLE, Ga. - Former Sen. Zell Miller fell ill while giving a speech in Gainesville Thursday night and was taken to a hospital emergency room. His wife said he had flu-like symptoms.

Miller, 73, excused himself from the stage at a banquet for the Gainesville Care Center at the Georgia Mountains Center and was transported to Northeast Georgia Medical Center.

He was admitted to the emergency room and was in stable condition, according to nursing supervisor Tammy Harbison. She said she did not know what made Miller ill.

Miller's wife, Shirley, was at the hospital and released a statement about an hour later saying he was feeling better.

"He has had flu-like symptoms for a couple of days, and he would not stay in bed," she said. "He feels like going home. He's just waiting for the doctor's approval."

I hope it's nothing serious.

Much better news than I had feared.

Here's hoping for many healthy years ahead for the good Senator.
