“He’s currently in the hospital, receiving treatment, including ECT (Electroconvulsive Therapy) as advised by his doctor. The road to recovery will take time, and it’s essential that he receives not only medical care but also financial support for his treatment, ongoing care, and a fresh start when he’s back on his feet,” part of the statement reads in parts.
