Goodman said Monday that Giuliani is now in \u201ccritical but stable condition,\u201d citing long-term health issues stemming from his time as NYC mayor amid the 9\/11 terrorist attacks in 2001.<\/p>\n

In an X post on Monday, Goodman shared more details about Giuliani\u2019s hospitalization, writing, \u201cMayor Rudy Giuliani is recovering from pneumonia.

\u201cThis condition adds complications to any respiratory illness, and the virus quickly overwhelmed his body, requiring mechanical ventilation to maintain adequate oxygen and stabilize his condition,\u201d Goodman wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is now breathing on his own, with his family and primary medical provider at his side.,\u201d Giuliani\u2019s spokesperson added. \u201cMayor Giuliani is the ultimate fighter \u2014 as he has demonstrated throughout his life \u2014 and he is winning this battle.<\/p>\n
