Republican senate candidate Carly Fiorina was hospitalized this morning for an infection related to surgery she had during her treatment for breast cancer.

“Carly learned more than a year and a half ago that she, like millions of women, had breast cancer. After successfully battling cancer, she had reconstructive surgery this summer and remains cancer free today,” said Fiorina chief of staff Deborah Bowker in a statement.

“However, this morning Carly came down with an infection associated with the reconstructive surgery and, as a result, she was admitted to the hospital to receive antibiotics to treat this infection. While this will impact her campaign schedule today, Carly is upbeat and her doctors expect her to make a quick and full recovery and be back out on the campaign trail soon. Carly is looking forward to getting back to her full campaign schedule and to defeating Barbara Boxer on November 2,” Bowker said.

UPDATE: The Boxer campaign has issued a statement wishing Fiorina well. “We wish Carly Fiorina a speedy recovery and hope she is able to return to her normal schedule soon,” said Boxer campaign manager Rose Kapolczynski.
