Cindy McCain Sprains Hand in Michigan Campaign Stop USA (wgvu) - WEST BLOOMFIELD, Mich. (AP) - Republican John McCain's wife was
treated Wednesday for a "minor sprain" after someone at a
campaign event in Michigan shook her hand firmly.
A campaign spokeswoman said Cindy McCain left the West
Bloomfield, Mich., campaign event Wednesday for X-rays at a local
hospital after an enthusiastic supporter squeezed too much.
McCain's wife has had previous surgeries for carpal tunnel syndrome
and the handshake exacerbated the condition.
Spokeswoman Jill Hazelbaker said Cindy McCain will return to the
campaign trail later Wednesday.
