Kim Zolciak Has Mini Stroke After 'Dancing With the Stars,' Posts Update
UPDATE: Kim issued a new statement, via People, on Sunday, September 27, leaving it unclear whether she would return to the dance floor for Monday's live show:
I want to thank everyone for their love and support over the past few days. I am now home with my family, resting and taking care of my health. I can't express enough how much I love dancing and this whole experience, and I hope this will not be the end of dancing."
Since she's home, maybe she is feeling well enough to dance with Tony on 9/28. At least the stars only have one dance this week, instead of having to learn two, like last week.

The Fall 2015 season of "Dancing With the Stars" has already been tough for the contestants, but especially Kim Zolciak-Biermann. It was bad enough that the "Real Housewives of Atlanta" alum was at the bottom of the scoreboard on Week 1, but things got worse after the two dances of Week 2. Kim said she suffered a transient ischemic attack after flying home from the Tuesday, September 22 episode of DWTS.
Here's what she posted about her "mini stroke" on Thursday:
On Friday, she shared another update, with a larger version of the photo posted at top:
Going in for one more procedure, things are looking up! don't let the oxygen scare you its just protocol. ???? I wanted THANK all of you for the love! I feel so overwhelmed with all the texts, comments etc. I'm so grateful to have all of you! #TheyDontCallMeToughieForNothing"
Kim's DWTS pro partner, Tony Dovolani, shared a statement with People:
After spending only a few weeks with Kim, it is evident of how much of a fighter she is. Her humor and positivity are still shining through, and it's amazing to see the love and support of her family. We are hoping for a speedy recovery."
Kim is one of 11 remaining celebs on DWTS Season 21, which returns with TV Week on Monday, September 28.
