Josh Allen’s grandmother died night before Seattle game [Update] The Patricia Allen Wing at Oshei is now open!

[Rhode Island Red]

Over $537K now, which is a gain of about $11K in the last three hours, this train just won’t stop!!

 

Anyone who hasn’t yet thrown some coal into the boiler, do it now baby!

[Doc]

Josh should have waited until it was at $483K...

Um, perhaps you meant to say $983K??

Ooops.  Thought he donated at $383K.  Meant $583K.

[Rhode Island Red]

Dollars to donuts that if folks can get it to $983K he’ll pony up again!! ...but no pressure, Josh!

 

I’m beginning to picture the new Patricia Allen Wing at Oishei...

 

Edit: However, ‘upon further review’, methinks a new wing would be a lot more than a paltry $1M...

 

Wiki: “Construction on the hospital started in 2014 at an estimated cost of $350 million, $35 million of which was provided by the state of New York and $10 million from the John R. Oishei Foundation”

Not that it’s about this in any way, but I’m curious if this is the kind of thing that gets Josh on the Walter Peyton man of the year radar?

 

I remember Watt won it in a landslide after raising money for Hurricane Harvey relief, but that was more his actions, less about the community supporting a player.

I don't see why not.  Oishei's Foundation provided (just) 10% of the cost of the Hospital but still got the Oshei name on it.

Your point is well taken, but your math is a tad off...

 

$10M is 2.9% of $350M, unless I’m as far off as you seem to be...?!

But the math works in favor of your argument!   Who the heyho gets naming rights for 2.9%??  

[MAJBobby]

I wonder if the this outpouring will discussed at the pre-game coverage.

If the donations keep rolling in maybe fans can get a bills mafia wing.

You know I’m a fan of your work, but Ima need to see your medical license at some point.  Something is not right here.  
 

Before proceeding, you’re a medical doctor, not a Doctor of Metaphysical Interpretation, Doctor of The Universe, The Love Doctor or anything like that?  I just want to be clear before the rage sets in.

It should be.  And far better to hear than how inaccurate Josh is.

You get to see nothing.  I'm off duty on the weekends.

I'm hoping. If so,  watch the outpouring of national donations!
