Los Angeles ( CNN ) -- Terminally ill singer Etta James was released Thursday from a Southern California hospital , her manager said . `` She is home with her husband and family by her side , '' said Lupe De Leon . `` Her condition remains stable . '' James , 73 , was hospitalized two weeks , battling the final stages of terminal leukemia and suffering from dementia . The `` At Last '' singer spent New Year 's Eve watching the ball drop with her sons , Donto and Sametto James , in her hospital room , said Donto James , who played drums in his mother 's Roots band for 15 years . Paul Wright , a lawyer who represents the sons in their dispute with Etta James ' husband over who makes decisions for her , said Sunday that the singer is `` nearing the end of her time , but she 's a tough lady . '' The judge overseeing James ' conservatorship approved an agreement last month in which husband Artis Mills is the conservator , but he must equally share `` end of life '' decisions with the sons , Wright said . Mills is also limited in how much of her estate he can spend and he can not `` encumber her music catalog , '' Wright said . CNN 's Carolyn Sung contributed to this report .
