That is a great story! I saw on Fox45 news that Tyson has been doing very well in medicare training and that he is getting stronger everyday. He can work a lot better with his hands now. He is in Glendale with the team and is at practice everyday. He is not treated any differently than the others. It is very nice to hear he is getting better!
