She underwent non-surgical treatment for “acute cholecystitis, a benign gall bladder condition,” at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland.

She is also expected to remain in the hospital for a day or two, and is still expected to participate in the oral arguments on Wednesday (May 6) in a case involving the Affordable Care Act’s contraceptive mandate.

Back in January, she announced that she was “cancer free.”

We are wishing her all the best in her recovery.

She recently made headlines for wearing this at an event.
