Nancy Pelosi says family "heartbroken and traumatized" after violent attack on husband

In a letter to fellow congressional members Saturday night, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi wrote that her husband is recovering after he was violently attacked in the couple's San Francisco home in the early morning hours Friday.

The House speaker wrote that 82-year-old Paul Pelosi's "condition continues to improve."

"Our children, our grandchildren and I are heartbroken and traumatized by the life-threatening attack on our Pop," she wrote. "We are grateful for the quick response of law enforcement and emergency services, and for the life-saving medical care he is receiving."
