Washington (CNN)It's been 19 days since the public has laid eyes on first lady Melania Trump. In the early hours of May 10, Trump welcomed home three American hostages from North Korea, accompanying President Donald Trump to greet them on arrival at Joint Base Andrews; it would be the last time public appearance by the first lady for more than two weeks. Four days later, Trump was checked in to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for what her spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham in a press release described as, "an embolization procedure to treat a benign kidney condition." That statement was released post-procedure, allowing Grisham to add that it was "successful and there were no complications." Yet 15 days later, the most anyone has heard from Trump has come via Twitter, with just one addressing her medical procedure.
