Two years ago Tony Albanese was severely injured in an airplane crash at Fullerton Municipal Airport. Rendered paraplegic and burned over 70% of his body, Tony has spent the past two years in and out of the hospital recovering from his very serious injuries. He is now in stable condition and has recently returned home to be cared for by his family and a fulltime caregiver. It is unknown what Tony's long-term medical expenses will be, but each month there is a shortfall of several thousand dollars to cover his expenses. Two years ago family and friends have set up a special fund for Tony. All contributions to this fund would be sincerely appreciated. There is a grassroots effort underway to help Tony raise funds for an assistance dog and a wheelchair van. To help Tony achieve these goals, friends can make a contribution to the Tony Albanese Fund (account: 0983035885) at any Washington Mutual branch on his behalf.
