Paul Pelosi, husband of Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, was released from a hospital Tuesday after receiving a kidney that was donated by his daughter Jacquline, a spokesperson announced.
The transplant surgery took place Friday at UCSF Medical Center, according to Nancy Pelosi’s office.
“With love and generosity my daughter Jacqueline, to whom I am endlessly grateful, is the donor,” Paul Pelosi, 84, said in a statement.
He praised the medical team at UCSF for their treatment.
“Under their guidance and the care of Nancy and our family, Jacqueline and I are on the path to a full recovery,” he said.
Paul Pelosi had previously been hospitalized in October 2022, after he was attacked with a hammer during a break-in at the couple’s San Francisco home.
Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi has been on the mend from surgery in December after breaking her hip in a fall during an World War II anniversary event in Luxembourg.
