Just got the latest Mike Vincent update in the mail, it looks like he's still improving and on the road to recovery. Be sure to check out the next benefit if you're in the area!


Hello,

This past Thursday was the three-month mark since Mike Vincent's accident. It was also the one-month mark since he was moved from Cedar Sinai to Rancho Los Amigos.

Much of what has happened since the move can be best described as organized chaos. From day one, it was clearly evident that Rancho did not have the adequate personnel and equipment to care for Mike's condition. After much lobbying from Mike's parents it appears that they are finally taking the necessary steps to accommodate Mike.

Now that the dust has settled from the initial turmoil, we are happy to report some wonderful news. Soon after The doctors are also reevaluating Mike's medications, which at this point are only counteracting each other's side effects. In the short time that the dosages have decreased, Mike has shown great improvement. His agitation has significantly reduced while his attention span has grown to allow for short conversations.

Mike's strength through this arduous journey is inspiring. He has met and surpassed every prediction and projection of his recovery.

We would like to thank everyone who have contributed his or her heart, time, and money to this cause so far. Yet the road to recovery is a long one and Mike Vincent and his family need your continued support.
