State Representative Mary Czaja was sworn into office during the inaugural ceremonies held Monday at the State Capitol, an event that a year ago could have seemed rather unlikely.
The Irma Republican, whose 35th Assembly District includes Antigo and all of western Langlade County, enters her second term after completing nearly a year of treatments for a Stage 3 breast cancer, a disease she thought she had beat a decade earlier.
She split much of her spring and summer between working for her constituents and undergoing treatments, but avoided the rigors of a re-election campaign when no one came forward to challenge her for her seat.
