The family of one of the renowned actors of the series “The Walking Dead”, Erik Jensen, decided to ask for help to raise money on a platform dedicated to this, so that the actor can undergo surgery, since he is going through cancer. stage IV.
The actor had already gone through a test just a year and a half ago, when he suffered a brain aneurysm, from which he was able to recover.
Jensen is facing colorectal cancer that has already metastasized to his liver, requiring urgent surgery to somehow improve his health.
His family went to the platform “GoFund“, to ask for financial help, since they are not going through the best of times, since the strike of SAG producers and writers has left many actors, including Jensen, without income.
According to the statement, even though the actor’s medical situation is not the best, he has not stopped working. To achieve an improvement in his health, he must undergo surgery, a situation that doctors have classified as a way to reduce tumors and save his life, although it is considered that this is not a terminal stage of the disease.
“The cancer has metastasized to the liver, but Erik is young and strong, his doctors have the opportunity to shrink the tumors enough to perform two very important surgeries and remove them all. He is incredibly resilient and strong,” the statement records on the fundraising platform.
The latest events in the life of this family have meant that they are not in the best financial moment and in addition to using the money they raise for Erik’s treatment, it will help them maintain their home and give their daughter Sadie a better future.
The collection began last Thursday, October 19 and so far they have received almost $93 thousand, which although it is not the figure they require, they did assure that in recent days the sum has been increasing considerably.
Many of his friends and colleagues in the apocalyptic series have shared and helped with the fundraising, such as actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who although he did not work directly with Jensen in the production, did know of the actor’s great personality and how much he needs the resources at this time.
