RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP) — Etta James’ manager said the R&B singer remains hospitalized in Southern California as she recovers from sepsis, an infection.
Lupe De Leon said Monday that James is stable and he doesn’t know when the 72-year-old singer will be released from the Riverside Community Hospital.
Her son, Donto James, said Friday that his mother has been hospitalized for about a week with sepsis caused by a urinary tract infection.
She entered a treatment program to shake a dependency on painkillers and was transferred to the hospital when her condition worsened.
