Interim editor in recovery

Last Monday morning, Carole Boynton, interim editor of the Local, was rushed to Chestnut Hill Hospital. Boynton had suffered a heart attack and was placed in the ICU. Doctors told friends and family that her condition was critical and said that the outlook depended on the next 24 to 48 hours.

Remarkably, Boynton was alert and in stable condition by Tuesday afternoon. On Thursday she was moved from the ICU to a regular room where she remained until her expected discharge this week.

Boynton is expected to continue to recover at home. She is in good spirits and is hoping to back at the office in the future.
