Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 70810, member: 636"] Civil rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson is recovering from a severe infection that required hospitalization, according to updates from his daughter Satita Jackson. She reported that her father has been steadily improving and remains eager to return home to resume his advocacy work among the communities he serves. The 83-year-old activist was admitted for treatment but never needed life support during his stay at a Chicago medical facility. Family members and close associates, including Rev. Al Sharpton, have traveled to be with him as he receives care for complications related to progressive supranuclear palsy, a rare neurological condition diagnosed earlier this year. Jackson also manages Parkinson's disease, which he revealed publicly in 2017. Satita Jackson noted that her father is communicating well with visitors and even requesting his preferred beverages, signaling his return to form. [/QUOTE]
