A Veteran Who Could Use Some Help

Ralph Slater lives in the upper Hudson Valley.

Ralph's Heart Transplant Fund was created on GoFundMe by his son Keith after the 70-year-old had a heart transplant in August.

On Veterans Day Patch reached out to Keith to find out how things were going. 

"We would love help spreading our message," he replied by email. "Ralph had a seizure in early October and we have been in Boston since."

Keith, who quit work to be with his dad, said, "Anything you can do would be appreciated. Thank you."
