Womble home


Rep. Larry Womble has been discharged from WakeMed.

The Winston-Salem Democrat was taken to the Raleigh hospital last night after feeling ill on the House floor Monday night. But he has returned home to Winston-Salem for follow-up care, a spokesman for House Speaker Joe Hackney said today.

Womble "will not be in session today," said spokesman Bill Holmes. "We will provide more information as it becomes available. Thank you again for your concern about Rep. Womble."

Womble, 66, is a seven-term Democrat and a retired educator.
