Rev. Jesse Jackson has been hospitalized as he continues to manage a serious neurodegenerative condition … the Rainbow PUSH Coalition announced Wednesday.
According to the organization, Jackson was admitted to the hospital and is currently under medical observation for progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a disorder he has been battling for roughly ten years.
“The family appreciates all prayers at this time,” the coalition said in a statement.
Jackson was first diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, but his PSP diagnosis was confirmed in April, the group added.
No further details on his treatment or recovery timeline have been released.
