WILL FARRELL HOSPITALIZED
As you may or may not
know, Will Farrell driver of figure 8 #29 has been
battling ulcer colitis for the past 10 years. He recently had
a colonoscopy and has since been fighting an infection
in his body which he could ultimately need
reconstructive surgery on his colon. Will currently remains in
Brookhaven Memorial Hospital.
Will's white and red
blood cell counts are low, and he may need to have a
blood transfusion in hopes of raising his blood cell count. He
recently had
a port installed in his neck to feed him the protein and
medication he so
desperately needs.
Will has been out of
work for the past month, his family is suffering
financial hardships. We are hoping to raise money to help them
in their time of need. These donations will go towards
any medical bills not covered by insurance and to help with
any other bills that may occur.
All donations will be
accepted by the #1 Figure Eight Car. For more information
regarding this worthwhile cause or just to send your get well
wishes please contact GetWellWill@longislandjam.com.
Thanks.
