Laval Mayor Stéphane Boyer says his recovery after a brain surgery is going well and that he is expected to return to work soon.
In an update shared on social media Tuesday, Boyer said he is still unable to walk or see with his eye.
“But I’m now fully functional, so I’ll be able to return to work shortly,” said the 38-year-old mayor, who underwent a 13-hour surgery last month to remove a tumour in his brain.
At the time, he said his recovery was expected to last two months. Ray Khalil, vice-chair of the Laval Executive Committee, has taken over Boyer’s duties during his absence.
Boyer also shared his appreciation for his family members and his health-care team.
“I’d also like to thank my loved ones who took care of me during a time of great vulnerability, and the entire medical team at Sacré-Cœur.” Boyer said. “Health-care workers do incredible work under conditions that aren’t always easy—just like family caregivers.”
