A paramedic checks the blood pressure of Manuel Uribe before a TV interview in his new modified truck in the suburb of San Nicolas de los Garza, in Monterrey March 20, 2009. Uribe, who once weighed 1,235 pounds (560 kg), will use a modified truck with the help of a driver who will help him to go out anytime he wants to. Uribe, who is unable to walk due to his swollen legs, has been confined to his home for years. Friday was the first time in six bedridden years Uribe was able to go to work. He currently weighs 705 pounds (320 kg). [Xinhua/Reuters] |
