BOB HOPE - HOPE'S WIFE SUFFERS SUSPECTED STROKE

HOPE'S WIFE SUFFERS SUSPECTED STROKE

The wife of late comedy legend BOB HOPE is resting at home following a dash to hospital in California.
Dolores Hope, who was married to the funnyman for 69 years, was taken to St. Josephs Hospital in Burbank by ambulance on Tuesday afternoon (21Oct08).
The 99-year-old is reported to have suffered a stroke at her San Fernando Valley home, according to website TMZ.com.
Hope was discharged later that day (21Oct08).
It comes just a day after an auction of Hope's belongings from the couple's marital home, including personal items such as hats, suits, sporting memorabilia and movie items which raised more than $600,000 (GBP352,000) for the Bob and Dolores Hope Foundation.
No further details about Dolores' condition were known as WENN went to press.
