After multiple surgeries, Deputy Alex Ladwig has been released from the hospital to continue his recovery at home with his wife and their dog.
While Alex faces the challenge of months of recovery, including additional surgeries, he and his wife remain optimistic and manage to smile in the face of such horrible adversity.
Together, in spite of this tragedy, they are in great spirits and Alex is determined to make a full recovery.
While the strength of the Ladwig family is immeasurable, they also know that Alex has drawn strength, courage and determination to fight, from his friends, his law enforcement family and an entire community that has rallied behind him with endless thoughts and prayers. Alex and his wife have been overwhelmed by the countless measures of support and the generosity from everyone around them, which includes people they will likely never have the chance to meet.
Alex’s commitment to protect this community was evident on Tuesday, June 27, and in turn, Alex and his family realize they have been supported by this same community.
The Ladwig family would like to express their gratitude for the support and prayers they have received and will undoubtedly continue to need as his healing progresses.
Alex has been able to make short trips into his community which help break up the monotony of his day to day recovery. However, in the bigger picture, Alex is committed to making a full recovery where he can once again serve his community and enjoy vacations with his wife and dog. At this time the Ladwig family is requesting privacy.
