kelownabomberfan Posted October 2, 2017 Report Posted October 2, 2017 Yup - let's show Hef what Bomber fans are truly made of. He deserves it.
bearpants Posted October 2, 2017 Report Posted October 2, 2017 Just looking at the list of donors... Cvety and Westerman have each put in $200 and Andrew Hawkins contributed $1000... nice to see support from fellow teammates and opponents... I'll contribute but I can't say I have to spare funds to match Cvety and Westy SPuDS 1
aalgernon Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 (edited) I read a great article about this injury and the way the CFL handles its player's medical expenses. Worth reading. Linked here, from the Ottawa Citizen. Wishing Hefney all the best. Guy was a great player for us. Edited October 3, 2017 by aalgernon
Guest J5V Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 Many thanks to Rich, Mike, and the other members of this site that helped to make this happen. Surgery isn't cheap.
Engelwood Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 Hefney was one of my favorite bombers of all time and he currently needs our help. His players insurance ran out and still needs another surgery to be able to use his right hand. For a right handed man this must be devastating. I think he would make an awesome DB's coach once he can get use of his arm back. http://ottawacitizen.com/sports/football/cfl/costs-benefits-jonathan-hefneys-injury-odyssey-shows-plight-of-athletes-in-canada https://www.gofundme.com/4ik88e0

I can DM Milt, Suits and Dunigan and see if they are aware. If this went Canada wide I am guessing Hef will raise enough for not only surgery but also any post-op recuperation/rehab he needs. Which would be fantastic. CFL fans are awesome, I can't ever say that enough times. The Classic and SPuDS 2

I really enjoy the knowledge, passion, and points of view of the vast majority of the posters here. Well done MBB and thank you brett_c_b.
mfranc Posted October 22, 2017 Report Posted October 22, 2017 I hope he gets what he needs in order to live a relatively pain free/healthy life.
TrueBlue Posted October 26, 2017 Report Posted October 26, 2017 You may have seen this on the Twitter machine. Sarah Evan, who is the team's RMT is donating her time to do 30 minute massages for a minimum $50 donation to Hefney's cause. Went to see her today and it was well worth it.
