Billy and Jenell Wilson

Billy Wilson was admitted to the hospital in mid-January with double pneumonia. He was in a coma for much of that time and it was a touch-and-go situation for quite a while. Now that he is awake, he has many hurdles to overcome. Billy lost part of his leg just over a year ago and suffered many health complications over the years so he is in a rehabilitation facility and is facing quite a long stay. On top of everything else, he is left-handed but has lost most if not all function in his left arm and is having to learn to use his right. This is hard even in the best of health.

His wife Jenell, who suffered a stroke recently, his sole and soul caretaker, was in a car wreck this past Valentine's Day, leaving her without a mode of transportation.

These are two people who would do anything for anyone, they are the kindest people I have ever met and they are going through the roughest time. Please search your heart and wallet to see if you can help them financially during this time.

Also, East Central Alumni, Jenell is class of 1982 and Billy is class of 1991.
