Donations to Wade George   Message List  
Reply Message #8649 of 12301 |
Dear Readers
 
Been running like mad to try and get as much help on this
issue in Michigan.
 
As you saw from the post Friday morning, and the additional
letter from Mary Cross that evening - that they were holding
a benefit for Wade E. George on Sunday August 7th 2005.
 
I made it to the event, and was completely impressed by the
efforts of this community for Wade. Mary Cross, Colleen
Wagner, Family, friends, and fellow church members. It
was one of the biggest turn outs for a single veteran that I
have seen in a very long time. They really care about him.
 
Have the photos, and videotape from the event, but haven't had a
chance to get those up yet. Have to get Wade as much other
kinds of help as possible first.
Background on Wade George:
SSG with D Co. 3/7th INF
11M30 Bradley Fighting Vehicle
Honorably Decorated / Discharged combat veteran
 
Was in the USS Comfort with ailments when Steve Martin ( comedian )
came through in 1990. *Confirmed with DHSD BDM team that
Wade has combat medical records, sent request to St Louis.
 
Been fighting health problems ever since, VA claim rejected
on technicalities.
 
Diagnosed with Carcinoma of the right lung that Metastasized
to the brain. Currently receiving daily radiation, paying with
Medicare.
 
Wade is the real deal people, a very kind, and warm person. He certainly
doesn't deserve this fate.
 
His wife Deanna has a hearing impairment, and has a hearing infection that
limits her - so for now Colleen has been fielding questions as well as
coordinating with Mary on Wades affairs while he is in treatment.
 
Colleen Wagner is at:
734-674-4570
 
Mary Cross is at:
734-281-1615
 
Below is the bank information for donations.
 
DSBR made a $200 donation
DSJF made a $200 donation
NGWRC made a $1,000 donation
 
We encourage others to continue to give to this family. This is only
the beginning.
 
This is all very complicated, so will fill in with additional emails.
 
                                                Sincerely
                                                Kirt P. Love
                                                Director, DSBR
