The CBC is reporting that Mayor Ford has a throat infection that makes it hard for him to swallow. This information is said to come from a source who knows the mayor’s condition but is unnamed. The diagnosis was apparently made at Humber River Regional Hospital where the mayor has been under observation and getting tests since Tuesday. After the mayor went into hospital, his office released an email statement: “Earlier this evening, Mayor Rob Ford admitted himself to hospital after feeling unwell. The mayor is currently under observation as a precautionary measure and is expected to make a full recovery.”
