My little cousin was admitted to hospital last night. He's been in and out of hospital most of his life and supports the Eels. I would like to know if anyone on this site could contact the club and maybe get some of the players like Hindy or Jarryd to visit him. He's in The Westmead Children's Hospital.

  • Mate I have a fair bit to do with Broncos and arrange for sick kidsand adults to visit and meet the players on a regular basis. last week organised a bloke with cancer to visit the team and meet his fav player - Darren Lockyer. Darren was very gracious with his time as were the rest of the players.

    One thing you have to remember that it is near impossible to arrange for someone like jarryd or Hindy to visit people due to the fact that they get massive massive requests to do so.

    The best bet is to arrange for your cousin to visit the dressing room after the game or at training. Hopefully someone on this site can do this for you.

    Im in Brisbane but If you get stuck, I may be able to arrange it for you through my contacts.

    Best of luck and good health to your cousin.

    • Thanks mate, it means alot
  • If anyone can arrange this - Tony can ! - Good work mate !

     

  • Hey supereel poor thing about your cousin, can I ask you what is he suffering from? I might be able to get hayne and Benny to do something for him 
    • He has a really bad virus and was rushed to hospital on Sunday night. His fever hit 39 degrees but was told to go home. He has a history of seizures and in 2003 he was admitted to hospital with an infection in his brain. He was in hospital for 2months where our family was told he probably wouldn't survive. Luckily he did, but his development has slowed and he can never play a contact sport. He likes watching RL and seeing Parra play.
  • It's not life threatening and he will be out in 1-2 weeks if everything goes to plan.
  • Hope he gets better soon supereel, sounds like a passionate supporter
    • All the best, Super.  There's nothing more precious than children.

      ps.  It's just fantastic to watch you good people with contacts rally to support Super's little cousin.

      Fathead, I'd like to plant a big, wet one on your fat head.  You too, Bongo, although I know little of the expanse of your head.

      Bless you both.

  • Thanks to everyone who has replied. Thankfully my cousin saw his specialist today and has recovered enough to be discharged. He wasn't as bad as initially thought.
