Another update on Drake.

2/10/06
"I went and spent a couple days with Drake. Hopefully today the wires will be taken off and he will be able to eat. That is the good news!!!!! The bad news, well it looks like almost everyone of his teeth will need help. Top and bottom, he will learn more today. He has lost a lot of weight, so now he will be able to gain some back. I asked him about the Kids Choice Awards, did he think he would be going. It is still to soon for him to know, it will depend on the next phase of healing for him. I would feel the exact same way. He finally got all the cards that you all sent, just know they cheered Drake up............he is still a kid at heart. When I walked in he thought it was Christmas! Thank you for helping him smile it helped his spirit lift more than you will ever know. He loves the fact that his fans are kids.

"Edit: "Well bummer, Drake went to the dentist.................no wires removed today.Oh that must have been a terrible let down for Drake. He was so sure they were coming off today. Maybe next week."

"Drake had the wires removed on Thursday, they gave him something to sleep. Then he went to another dentist, and he was with him for about 4 hours. When Drake left he had temporary teeth. He can eat now, and will be returning to work. We are not exactly sure when, Josh is very concerned it is to early. Josh has been there every step of the way for Drake. They have become very good friends through all of this.

Josh told me about the 2 things Drake is up for....the Drake and Josh show and Drake for best actor. He was thrilled for him, I didn't understand how Drake would be separated from Josh especially since the show is both of them. He said "that's show biz" but he was very happy for Drake. I have been to Drake's a lot more since the accident, Josh is usually there too. Since they are not working, it is nice to see them hanging out. That is the latest update."
