W. Wildwood Mayor Resumes Full Schedule After Hospitalization

 

By Deborah McGuire

WEST WILDWOOD – “I feel great!” Mayor Chuck Frederick told the Herald on his second day back to work. Frederick returned to his office on Mon., Aug. 29 and resumed his full schedule immediately.
Frederick had been hospitalized since July 18 when he sustained a serious head injury when falling from a ladder in his Venice Avenue home.
“I had three meetings yesterday,” he said. “I’m back to my daily schedule.”
The mayor met with department heads on Aug. 30 to compliment them on their work during Hurricane Irene.
“I’m back to my normal routine, the same as before,” he said. “I’ve already ridden my bike.”
Recovering from his injuries was a long process for Frederick. And being hospitalized gave him new perspectives.
“I was very fortunate,” he said referring to his injury. “I feel very fortunate. Things sometimes happen and it’s a reality check.”
He shared that he received well-wishes from political friends, and foes, as well. “It amazes me,” he said. “This made me realize how many friends I have. I am thankful for everyone’s thoughts and prayers.”
Although Frederick is back to his full schedule in the borough, his days as a do-it-yourselfer may be modified.
“I’ve always been a do-it-myself kind of guy,” he said. “But now I think I’m going to stay closer to the ground.”
