Mayor Rob Medina was taken to Palm Bay’s Health First hospital around 3am Sunday morning after suffering a “medical episode.” He released the following statement.
“I received outstanding medical care and professionals and treatment at Palm Bay Hospital,” said Medina. “I am proud of their service to our community.”
“I was admitted to Palm Bay hospital for some tests as a follow up precaution. I requested to go to hospital early this morning after waking up and not feeling well. I am thankful to report that I have been and continue to be fully alert and conscious during this physical ordeal. I want to thank all involved for the outstanding professional attention. My wife Lisette, family and I are extremely blessed to share all tests performed thus far have been negative.”
“I am looking forward to continuing the great work we have to accomplish for the City of Palm Bay. OOH RAAH!” said Medina. “Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers,” said Medina.
Editors note: “Ooh rah” is a battle cry among Marines that Medina often uses in public speaking. Medina served 3 years in the Marines as a finance clerk.
