Heinz Kerry makes 1st public appearance since July
By Associated Press


WASHINGTON (AP) — Teresa Heinz Kerry, the wife of Secretary of State John Kerry, made her first public appearance since suffering a seizure in July.

Heinz Kerry was seated in the row behind her husband as he testified Tuesday at a Senate hearing on Syria. The secretary of state and the chairman of the committee, Sen. Bob Menendez of New Jersey, both commented on her presence.

The 74-year-old Heinz Kerry suffered a seizure at the couple’s Nantucket home July 7. She was treated at a Nantucket hospital and another in Boston before being released three weeks later.

Heinz Kerry, an heir to the Heinz ketchup fortune, is the widow of former Sen. John Heinz, who was killed in a helicopter crash in 1991. She married Kerry, a former Massachusetts senator, in 1995.

A happy moment after I was still foaming over my Senator - Stupid Ron Johnson asking questions in a loud challenging voice that revealed he had NO idea what he was asking about. Couldn't count the times Kerry politely reminded him that there is an off camera meeting to address matters like rebel troop strength etc. that could reveal the depth of the intel.

But then, Teresa! Hooray.
