Island Hospital after ordering a pizza


He told NBC10: ‘It’s an addiction and I realize that. And it’s a disease.’
Assanti
explained that he was supposed to remain at the hospital until his
weight dropped to 550 pounds, at which point he could undergo gastric
bypass surgery.
Hi father said:
‘I
just don’t know who to turn to,’ he told NBC10. ‘I called everybody,
everybody you can think of in the state of Rhode Island and nobody seems
to be able to help me.’
He
added that even if he was able to get his son up the stairs of his
home, it would almost certainly mean returning to his previous eating
pattern.
