ONEONTA, 11/06/19 -- State Senator James L. Seward (R/C/I/ – Oneonta) today issued the following statement:

“I have recently been advised by my physicians that the cancer I first experienced in 2016 has recurred.

“My physicians have recommended a series of treatments over the next several weeks that will limit my availability and curtail my normal, active district schedule.  While I will be taking some time to concentrate on getting better, my offices will remain open and my capable staff will continue to assist constituents with their state-related needs.

“I look forward to completion of my treatment protocol and returning shortly to serve the good people of the 51^st Senatorial District as we anticipate the start of the new legislative session.”
