Ten years ago, Oscar “Ozzy” Gutierrez was like any normal 18 year old; getting ready to move out of his parent’s house and go away to school. Just days before he was set to leave, Ozzy was shopping for necessities for his new Rancho Cucamunga condo and was struck with blurry vision and a headache that dropped him to his knees. When over the counter meds and rest didn’t help, Ozzy went to Rady’s Childrens to find out what was wrong, and a CT revealed a small, pen-tip-sized shadow on his left cerebellum. Ozzy was admitted immediately, and for 2 weeks underwent testing. It wasn’t until a biopsy was performed that Doctors could make a definitive diagnosis: Glioblastoma multiforme. A brain tumor. Cancer.
In its 2nd year KAABOO returns to the Del Mar Fairgrounds from September 16-18. The three-day music and comedy festival promotes itself as a “mix-perience” for adults to enjoy world-class music, comedy, cuisine, libations and contemporary art.
