CHICAGO — The wife of imprisoned former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich says she isn't happy with delays in the appeal of her husband's convictions.

Former Illinois first lady Patti Blagojevich tells WFLD-TV that the process is "incredibly frustrating" and that the Blagojevich children miss their father.

In March, Blagojevich began serving a 14-year-old sentence on 18 corruption convictions, which included charges he sought to sell or trade President Barack Obama's old U.S. Senate seat for campaign cash or a job.
