A GoFundMe page has now raised more than $48,000 and counting to help with the medical expenses for a Pleasant Plains football player who collapsed during a weekend game.
The organizer of the fundraising effort says Jayden Veesenmeyer may have suffered a head injury that resulted in pressure on the brain, which ultimately required emergency surgery to alleviate. The page says Jayden is showing signs of progress but has a long road to recovery ahead of him. You can access the GoFundMe page HERE.
In addition, a candlelight vigil has been organized for 8:30 this evening in the parking lot of the HSHS St. John’s Women’s and Children’s Center on 9th Street… a location where Jayden’s family will be able to see it while they remain at his bedside.
