Joni Mitchell "has made remarkable progress" since she was hospitalized after suffering a brain aneurysm, her lawyer said in court documents obtained by People, but the lawyer recommends that the legendary folk singer remain under a conservatorship for now.

"While [Mitchell] has made great progress toward recovery, the capacity declaration of [neurologist Paul Vespa] indicates that she lacks capacity to make informed medical decisions," attorney Rebecca Thyne wrote, according to E!"I agreed that [Mitchell] still needs assistance with such decisions."  

As previously reported by HNGN, Mitchell's friend and fellow musician David Crosby recently said that Mitchell was unable to speak, but her conservator and friend, Leslie Morris, refuted his remarks.

Mitchell has since returned to her home, and she "has been pleased with Morris' work so far and hopes her role will be extended," Thyne wrote in the documents, according to E!.

"She also told me that she receives excellent care from caregivers around the clock," Thyne stated in the court papers, E! reported. "It was clear that she was happy to be home and that she has made remarkable progress. She has physical therapy each day and is expected to make a full recovery."

Mitchell was found unconscious in her Los Angeles home on March 31 and admitted to a nearby hospital. It turns out that Mitchell suffered a brain aneurysm, a source revealed to Billboard in May.

Mitchell, 71, is known for a unique folk, jazz and pop style in songs like "Big Yellow Taxi," "Woodstock," "Both Sides Now" and "Chelsea Morning," as well as on classic albums including "Blue" and "Court And Spark."
