Natalie Cole Home From Hospital

Natalie Cole is on the rebound.
The ailing singer has been discharged from a New York City hospital, where she had holed up for a week after recently suffering a setback resulting from her difficult chemotherapy treatment for hepatitis C.
The 58-year-old Cole has returned to her home in Los Angeles, where she will be on bed rest for the remainder of the month.
While the "Unforgettable" warbler is receiving kidney dialysis, her rep tells E! News that it is unrelated to hep C, which is now under control.
"She is out of the hospital and resting at her L.A. home," says publicist Maureen O'Connor. "She is feeling a lot better and hopes to resume her promotional actvities for her new Still Unforgettable CD shortly."
Cole has nixed all promotional appearances and performances in October in support of Still Unforgettable, which entered the album charts last month at No. 19.
The daughter of music legend Nat King Cole learned of her diagnosis in the spring and went public with her battle in July, saying she had most likely contracted the disease due to her heroin addiction in the early '80s.
In revealing her condition, Cole said she had already begun taking a heavy regimen of antiviral medication and had since tested negative for the disease, which attacks the liver.
