Update: Joni Mitchell Coma Report Not True

Joni Mitchell
Singer Joni Mitchell has not fallen into a coma and is doing fine, according to a post written by Mitchell's family on the singer's official website.

"Contrary to rumors circulating on the Internet today, Joni is not in a coma," the message reads. "Joni is still in the hospital - but she comprehends, she's alert, and she has her full senses. A full recovery is expected."

The clarification comes following a report by TMZ, which stated that Mitchell had fallen into a coma and was unresponsive. According to TMZ, Mitchell showed no prospects of getting better.

Mitchell's family believes TMZ got a copy of documents that gave Mitchell's long-time friend Leslie Morris the authority to make care decisions for Mitchell once she leaves the hospital, and misinterpreted them.

Mitchell, 71, was rushed to the hospital on March 31 after she was found unconscious at her home in Los Angeles. The following day, she was described as being awake and in "good spirits."
