"We don't have a specific medical update at this time. He's fighting, he's pushing through," Rooney tells ET's Kevin Frazier. "He's working to get better. I think there's still a lot that that's up in the air that we can't come out publicly with a statement 'til we know what exactly is going on. It's honestly a day-by-day thing. We're just monitoring it each day to see where he's at.
"His parents, they're fighters," Rooney says."I mean, it's one of the best support systems that anyone could have and honestly it shows why Damar is so strong-willed and caring. I mean, they're looking out for everybody else. They're trying to help hospital staff and other people who are showing up. It's just a testament to who they are."
"They obviously are nervous," he says."It's a little scary for them but they're optimistic because they know Damar."
