Show Notes

John Walter was supposed to start at UNC-Chapel Hill next month. Instead, the 18-year-old Wake Forest teenager has been in the intensive care unit at WakeMed after he fell off the back of a pickup in mid-June. On Tuesday, his family gathered for a fundraiser at Rudino's in Wake Forest to raise money for John's medical bills. They also shaved people's heads in solidarity with John, who had his head shaved in the hospital. Rob Walter, the father of John, joined Jeff Hamlin on the WPTF Afternoon News to discuss the family’s ongoing efforts to help their son.
