Former Boston Red Sox star David Ortiz took his first steps — literally — on Tuesday in his recovery from a gunshot wound.
His wife, Tiffany Ortiz, issued a statement Tuesday through the Red Sox: “David arrived at Massachusetts General Hospital last night and underwent a successful second surgery. He is stable, awake, and resting comfortably this morning in the ICU where he is expected to remain for the next several days.
The number of visitors will be limited and Ortiz will be closely monitored for the next 24 to 48 hours, but doctors are hopeful that he will make a full recovery.
