U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. ‘completely debilitated by depression,’ wife says
The wife of ailing U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. is finally talking.
In an exclusive interview, Ald. Sandi Jackson (7th) walked Sneed through the dark days since her husband’s “collapse.” She also dispelled rumors her husband, who is being treated for depression at Mayo Clinic, attempted suicide or was receiving help for alcohol and drug addiction.
“No, no, none of that is true,” said Sandi Jackson, who has been at the helm of her husband’s health care since he collapsed at their home in Washington, D.C., on June 10.
