180 Pound Weight Class

Andy left the hospital today! He and Raymond are living three houses North of the LDS Hospital on the West side of the street. For now, he plans to stay close to the hospital to complete both physical and speech therapy (he never sounded like he had much of an accent to me). When necessary, Raymond will push him back and forth in a wheelchair for his doctor checkups and testing.

Andy looks much better, and now he is in the process of changing his lifestyle. That said, he looks the best he has looked in nearly a month for sure. He has shed approximately 35 pounds and now tips the scales somewhere around the 180 pound weight class--it looks like he will be looking for some new shorts. After not drumming for a month, we'll see how many seconds it takes him to get back into form.

For the next couple of weeks he will be concentrating on rehabilitating himself and learning how to prepare a sundry of healthy food dishes. Thanks to all of you who have donated money to the Andy Garcia Fund at the Bank of American Fork and who continue to keep him in your thoughts and prayers. Andy admits a miracle has occurred and he has a second lease on life. Welcome back Andy . . . one step at a time . . .
