AP: Topeka mayor still recovering

Published 7/3/2009 in News

TOPEKA (AP) — Topeka Mayor Bill Bunten says he is unsure when he'll return to office as he continues to recover from pneumonia.

Bunten was hospitalized for six days in mid-June and is now recovering at home. He said Thursday that his doctors have told him he's improving, but they haven't been able to identify exactly what type of pneumonia he's has.

The 79-year-old Bunten said his condition isn't considered life-threatening. He expects to return to work but said that won't happen until he's healthy.

Deputy Mayor Richard Harmon and City Council members have been filling in for Bunten at some mayoral commitments.
