Update on Tom Connelly

Tom Connolly, President of AHAM, is doing well. He is on a normal diet and is gaining back some of the weight he lost since the accident. He cannot put full weight on his left leg until he gets the ok from his orthopedic surgeon whom he will see on the 3rd of August. Until then he is doing mild rehab and is continuing to strengthen his arms and right leg.
