Perry Saturn's Medical Needs

Donation protected
Story Updated February 25th
 
I am Isaac Davenport, known in Twitchverse and Twitterverse as Failed_Hero85. I am a teacher, a Twitch Streamer, WWE 2k18 Content Creator and Wrestling Fan. As a fan of professional wrestling, I have reveled in the damage that the men and women in wrestling business do to themselves for the sake of my entertainment. As I grew older and gained a deeper appreciation for my fandom, I also fostered a healthy respect and admiration for professional who goes into a ring and puts their body on the line.

Right now, I am representing a group Twitch.TV Streamers, wrestling fans, and all around charitable souls who want to help one of those professionals is Perry Satullo, known professionally as Saturn or Perry Saturn.My first exposure to Saturn was one of the larger than life figures in the WCW, one whose ring work was always solid and whose character was ever evolving. I knew very little about the man. After researching him years ago, I learned he was college educated, an Army Ranger and trained with Killer Kowalski. I learned that most of his fellow professionals often spoke highly of Saturn he was liked and respected. I also learn that Saturn over years had been addicted to methamphetamines and heroin after being shot stopping the sexual assault of a woman. I finally learned that he struggled with homelessness and the cycle of recovery and backsliding multiple times.

After the reading the last paragraph most people would chalk Perry Saturn up to another in a long list of wrestling and entertainment related tragedies, however, those people would be wrong. Saturn is a recovering addict who has been sober for seven years, he married Lisa Kuhlemeier in 2009 and together they hold one another accountable for their sobriety. However, the story does not end there, as Perry Saturn is now dealing with the fallout of his time in the wrestling business, and his time an addict. Saturn is suffering from some form of neurological disorder, which remains undiagnosed. His symptoms include short-term memory loss, confusion in stressful situations, insomnia, tinnitus, and insomnia.

Perry Saturn needs our help as he is unable to work due the symptoms he faces every day.   After hearing Perry’s interview with Raven on The Raven Effect, I was deeply moved by his situation. Saturn is a big part of why I am a wrestling fan, and I am not the only one who feels that way.  

What caught the groups attention most in Perry’s interview with Raven, was the fact it was mentioned that help was needed for travel expenses to get to Boston. I know I got the impression that perhaps getting Perry to Boston could lead an appointment with Boston University’s CTE Center which could lead to better understanding and treatment for him.  

New Information
In working with Saturn's friend and director of "The Rings of Saturn" documentary we have determined that Saturn's needs are a bit larger than, I originally estimated.  

100% of the donations given will go to help Perry and Lisa.
