Billy Graham captivated fans around the world with his incredible character work. Wrestling’s original ‘Superstar’ feuded with Bruno Sammartino over the WWWF Heavyweight Championship in what became a legendary rivalry.
Graham, unfortunately, caught several medical complications with advanced age. According to the latest update on his Facebook page, the WWE Hall of Famer is dealing with a terrible bone infection.
Let’s keep the champ in our prayers please. The following is a message I received from his wife, Valerie. Thank you, Mike (admin) God Bless you Billy! :
Lots of issues… MRI showed he has a very bad infection in his ears that has spread to the bones in his ears as well as an area of his skull…infectious disease doctor was just in trying to decide what antibiotics they’re going to start him on.
His electrolytes are still off…his low sodium is especially difficult to treat and they don’t know why at this point.
We need your prayers
