MStars News has learned that Dancing With The Stars contestant, Kim Zolciak-Biermann, is getting some much needed rest at home after suffering a mini stroke last week. The former Real Housewives of Atlanta star has released a statement to her fans and supporters thanking everyone for their love. "I want to thank everyone for their love and support over the past few days," the Bravo TV star said. "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." MStars News previously reported, that the mother of six was on her way home back to Atlanta from Los Angeles last week when she had a transient ischemic attack. Kim had just taken a flight from Los Angeles following her competition on Dancing With The Stars. Now it seems all Kim wants to do is recover and return to the ballroom competition to take home the trophy ball. In the photo above, Kim revealed that she had to undergo another procedure before being discharged and returning home. The Don't Be Tardy star wrote: "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!" Kim's fellow cast member and dance partner, Tony Dovolani, visited the reality star when learning that she had been hospitalized. In the snapshot below, Tony smiled while spending some time with Kim, who captioned the photo: "This guy @tonydovolani has been by my side for 2 days! he even brings me my favorite coffee. Although he is always dancing around the room lol he keeps me smiling!" She added, "So blessed to be surrounded by such great people. Want to go home so bad! Hopefully tomorrow!"

"After spending only a few weeks with Kim, it is evident of how much of a fighter she is," Dovolani said about his dance partner. "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."

It's unclear at this time if Kim will be a part of Monday night's show. Get better soon Kim!
