Joe Ruthven of Lakeland said Hagan didnt have a heart attack and isnt in a coma. He wouldnt give any further details.
Hagan, 63, was elected in 2008 and served one term before she was defeated by Republican Thom Tillis. A spokeswoman said she formerly lived in Lakeland but currently resides in Greensboro, North Carolina.
The Hagan family said in a statement released to The Associated Press that Kay is receiving the best possible medical care. It didnt give further details and asked for privacy.
Tillis sent a statement on his Twitter account wishing for Hagan a speedy recovery back to good health.
