Dundee Liberal Democrat councillor Fraser Macpherson is on the road to recovery after being rushed to hospital suffering from pneumonia.
The West End councillor was admitted to the intensive care unit at Ninewells Hospital earlier this month after suffering severe chest pains.
Mr Macpherson is now recuperating at home after a stint in hospital.
He said: “I am making slow but steady progress, having been discharged from hospital just over a week ago.
“It’ll be a bit of time until I am well enough to return to full duties but arrangements are in place to ensure all constituents’ issues and queries can be progressed and assisted with as normal.
“I am very grateful to the excellent members’ support staff at the council, who are ensuring that service to all constituents continues as normal.”
He also paid tribute to the staff who had cared for him.
“I have to say how impressed I was with the care and attention from the doctors and nurses from the high dependency ward and ward 3 at Ninewells Hospital and also at Wallacetown Health Centre.”
