"We thank you for the heartfelt thoughts on the status of Erik's recovery. We will inform you that he's still in critical condition and literally fighting for his life every minute of the day as his body has endured a tremendous amount of trauma," Cantu's attorney, Brian Powers, said."He is still on life support. We need all the blessing we can receive at this time.
