Charlie Sheen Visits Brooke Mueller At The Hospital

We already knew Charlie Sheen's wife Brooke Mueller was having medical issues following oral surgery, and X17 photographers just spotted Charlie leaving the Sherman Oaks Hospital after visiting Brooke, who was taken to the medical center this morning with a high fever.

Police and hospital security are positioned near the emergency room entrance, and while a hospital employee told X17online that Brooke isn't checked in under her given name or any of her other aliases (Brooke Sheen, Allen, or Estevez), the heightened security and Charlie's visit would seem to contradict that.

Brooke's scheduled court appearance in Aspen this morning has been delayed until Friday, and she was set to request that the judge lift her protective order against Charlie, which ironically didn't stop him from visiting her today. Charlie and two pals arrived at the hospital this morning, and while the protective order stipulates that Charlie and Brooke cannot have direct contact with one another, it doesn't say that they can't be in the same room together. Since Charlie dropped by, it sure seems like these two are making every effort to patch things back up...

UPDATE:
Charlie's attorney Richard Cummins has filed documents asking the Aspen, Colorado judge to allow Charlie to have contact with Brooke while she's recovering in the hospital. In the docs, Cummins asks for an adjustment on the protective order, stating that Charlie "is concerned and feels the necessity to assist and care for his wife."
