Hello. We come to you as friends and bandmates of our beloved Clay Broussard.
In early September Clay suffered a series of TIAs or mini-strokes. He lost the use of his right side for a time and was hospitalized for several days. Thankfully, Clay’s mind is fully intact, but his general physical functioning is significantly impacted. Recovery is going to take time.
Clay also suffers from “end-stage renal disease,” and is undergoing dialysis. Unfortunately, his treatment has been beset by complications and has not gone well. While the search for a transplant has been unsuccessful thus far, we continue to hope a match will be found.
The Broussards are facing dire financial straits due to mounting medical bills. Clay has continued to do online teaching and tutoring; amazingly, he is already back to grading papers, even though the process is painfully slow and taxing.
Clay has touched many throughout the years; as a professor and academic dean, a producer of online music programming, a long-running music columnist, and a successful producer of electronic dance music. Moreover, he has been a legend in the southeastern music scene; a mentor, friend, and reliable sounding board for so many of us.
We ask anyone who’s been touched by Clay to give what you can to help, and to keep him in your prayers. Thank you very much!
