Friends Rally For Man Fighting To Recover After Tragic Accident

MONTAUK, NY — Friends are reaching out to help a local man left fighting for his life after an accident recently.

A GoFundMe, "Henry's Fight For Recovery," has raised $15,040 of its $30,000 goal so far.

"On April 27, 2017, our amazing friend Henry was involved in a very serious accident that has left him fighting for his life," the page, created by Paul Acevedo, said. "Henry is currently in an induced coma while the doctors work to save his life. God willing, Henry will start the process of healing on the road to recovery and will need an immense amount of support, both emotionally and financially."

The goal, Acevedo said, is to raise enough money to provide his family with the means to support him through his recovery and cover any and all expenses that may arise to alleviate any extra burdens they may have so they can focus all of their time and energy on his healing.

"To know Henry is to love Henry. His infectious smile, outrageous sense of humor and kind heart are what made each and every one of us love Henry. Please give what you can," he said.
