After being the first website that brought you the news regarding Alex Ramos being hospitalized last week, I want to thank the many that have contacted me personally inquiring about his condition and health.

At this time I would like to up-date you on his progress and what better way to do that than by a note that I received from Jacquie Richardson and that I will now share with you. Please continue your prayers for Alex and do give him a call, as I am sure he will appreciate that very much!

============================================

Thought you would all like to know that Alex Ramos is out of the
hospital, and is walking with a cane, although he has a ways to go.
He is blown away by all of the email and phone calls and cards. It is
hard for me to believe that one week ago this minute, he was coming
out of a 48 hour coma!!! He will be getting home health assistance
(nursing) and he will also have home physical therapy. He got
amazing care at Simi Valley Adventist Hospital and the nurses were sad
to see him go. Alex thanks you all for your love, prayers and
support, and asks that you continue through his recovery. His feet
are still very painful when he walks, but that does not stop him!
Alex IS a fighter and we are all grateful for his miraculous recovery.
Like I said, he’s too mean to die and he is to determined to beat
this thing, and I believe he will. As you would expect, he wants to
run but he has to walk, first.

I would also like to thank you all for the moral support. We could
not have gone through this alone. We needed to multiply our own
prayers and you were there for us. THANK YOU!

If you want to call Alex, feel free to call him on his cell phone at
(805) 390-7334.

Love and hugs,
