Rep. Haler recovering at home after spinal surgery
Rep.
Larry Haler, R-Richland, is resting and recovering at home
following cervical spine surgery earlier this week.
Haler, who was recently
elected to a third term representing the 8th Legislative District, was
injured in a fall in mid-August, but medical personnel only recently
realized the need for surgery.
"I want to thank family
and friends who have extended their well-wishes and prayers," Haler
said.
As part of his post-op
recovery, Haler will wear a soft cervical collar for the next three to
four weeks. While he has curtailed his public appearances and speaking
engagements, Haler is reading at home, doing paperwork and corresponding
with constituents via e-mail. His district office at 719 Jadwin Ave.,
Suite 6, in Richland continues to be staffed by his Legislative
Assistant, Jan Swenson.
