Hillary Clinton Returns to Work Before Her Departure

Outgoing State Department head has meeting with Afghan president this week

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton returned to work on Monday, a little over a week after being hospitalized with a blood clot in her head, and mere weeks before she is replaced by Massachusetts senator John Kerry. The State Department released a schedule for Clinton, which has her beginning the week with office meetings. On Thursday and Friday, she is scheduled to meet with visiting Afghan President Hamid Karzai. Clinton had been on medical leave after suffering a concussion in early December. She was later admitted to a New York hospital after doctors discovered a blood clot behind one of her ears. (Associate Press)
