Local
musician Terry Gibson was in a bike accident on June 23th 2007. He broke
his back in 2 places and had 2 major operations within one day of each
other. He also has several other injuries from the accident that where
not addressed. Terry had just started a new job and did not have any insurance.
The hospital would not give him the therapy
he needed because of his inability to pay for it. Four days after his 3rd
operation he returned to an apartment that was too small for a hospital
bed, and had to find a new home with a bigger living space. It has only
been three weeks this Saturday morning since the accident and the bills
are piling up.
Terry has supported many benefits in the
past as an organizer and musician and is well loved in the community.He
now needs his communities help in his time of need.
A bank will be set up for any donations,
and the procides from the Celebrity softball game will go to bills Terry
is accurring.
