"He is back on seizure medication to help with the potential of any seizures moving forward. He's feeling much better now and is in really good spirits! He's back home resting at this time.
"They have meetings planned at UCLA to discuss the next step to deal with the tumors. We appreciate everyones thoughts and prayers as Oz continues to face this battle.
"We also ask that you all respect his (and Annie's) privacy. The best thing that we can all do is to continue to lift him up silently and fervently.
"We will keep you informed as best as we can, when we can.
"God bless you all and thank you"
