Sammy Davis Jr., recuperating at home from chemotherapy, got a boost from the birth of his second grandchild and words of encouragement from Frank Sinatra.
"He told Sammy he wishes he were on the road with him again," said Susan Reynolds, spokeswoman for the two entertainers. Asked how Davis was doing, she said only, "He's resting."Sinatra and his wife, Barbara, visited Davis on Monday in Beverly Hills, Calif.
Davis' grandchild Sam Michael Garner was born Friday. Davis' daughter, Tracy Garner, delivered the 7-pound-1-ounce boy at a Los Angeles hospital, Reynolds said.
