Oxnard teen gets Make-A-Wish granted by LA Rams
OXNARD - Not every teen opens his garage to a brand-new gym.
This gym even came with some notable features.
The Los Angeles Rams teamed up with Make-A-Wish Tri-Counties to grant Diego Garcia his wish.
The Oxnard teen faced the fight of his life facing cancer last year.
"Last year we go through a really hard time," said Diego's father Miguel Garcia. "I appreciate everybody."
Diego's cancer is in remission.
But it's not advisable for him to go back to the gym.
This tricked-out home gym is exactly what he needed.
"I really want to get back into shape," he said. "Back to being normal."
