On Monday, September 21st, Reggay started noticing severe pain in his neck and shoulders. He pushed through Charlie's LIVE! a weekly show he hosts, but by Wednesday the pain had only gotten worse, and he went to the ER. After several scans, tests, and four spinal taps, he was diagnosed with an extremely rare form of meningitis.

This has been an unexpected setback. The recovery process will be long to eradicate the infection, Reggay will be out of work, pulled from gigs while tackling a huge medical expense on top of his other financial obligations. Not to mention he’s pushing through all of this during his favorite time of year - his birthday.

If you're able, please consider donating anything at all to help Reggay through this health crisis, so he can focus on fighting this infection and coming back stronger.

Reggay was looking forward to performing his signature birthday show at Charlie’s and this event has significantly changed his plans. If you can not donate online, come out to Charlie’s Chicago, October 5th, 12am-3am. To give him encouraging words or donate in person.

Reggay is incredibly grateful and feels beyond lucky that this was caught before it turned fatal. While the recovery may not be quick we are expecting it will be full. Thank you for your time!
