"A Life Apart: The Toll of Obesity"

"I ended up flopping out like a dead whale, just throwing my leg over and just rolling out of the pool," Hector Garcia Jr. said of struggling to get out of the pool his first time at the Palo Alto College Aquatic Center pool in May 2011. "It was humiliating in the fact that they didn't have stairs for the disabled and I couldn't get out of the pool correctly because the ladder was so high." The following week Hector found a pool with stairs in and out.
