Actor and comedian Tracy Morgan stopped by a cancer hospital on Staten Island to visit a lifelong fan.
Wednesday, May 1, 2024 5:07PMDONGAN HILLS, Staten Island --It was just the thing Thomas Sax needed to lift his spirits at the Florina Cancer Center at Staten Island University Hospital -- a visit from the actor and comedian, who the 59-year-old truly admires.
"Hearing how much he gives back to the community was really special, I believe in that, I believe you have to help each other," Sax said. The pair became fast friends because Morgan is a big backer of the hospital where Sax is getting chemotherapy after being diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer."These people are helping me, I'm always going to continue being funny just to make those laugh and inspire those, keep fighting, no matter what you do, keep fighting, if I can do it, you can do it," Morgan said.Morgan nearly died in a horrific crash on the New Jersey Turnpike in 2014.
"My grandmother told me just when you think you thought you are doing bad, people out there are worse, so you have to thank the lord," Morgan said."If God gives me another 30 days or gives me another 30 years, he's given me my soulmate, my loving daughter who I cherish and every day I open my eyes, I'm grateful for it," Sax said.
