now when you hear the word billsmafia now that you've been
here what's the first word that comes to mind family Bill's
Mafia there they are unbelievable this place reminds
me so much of my home and how I was raised and I feel like
I would
be part of those Mafia if I wasn't for the football players
it is going to be a major love affair he's our guy now
for Josh Allen football isn't the only reason his love for
Buffalo feels like a family affair there's also his
connection with O'Shea Children's Hospital on family
history my brother had a rare disease when he was little
Kawasaki disease and he's
in the hospital for about a week and I remember how I felt
seeing my brother go through that see my parents go through
that you got to do me a favor you got to help me put it on
stretched out I ready
there we go I love it it's the smallest thing you can do is
just go say hi to somebody and just put a big smile on your
face. You know that the person that they're looking up to is
also looking out for them. I can't believe
you came
my name is Jessica and I am 9 years old
there aren't any bigger Josh Allen fans or a knife and for
that matter of family
when Jack was two doctors that O'Shea diagnosed him with
a rare autoimmune disease it was an early catch
and years of weekly treatment have helped him avoid any major
complications
we're grateful to our side because my boy is a perfectly
healthy boys living a great life and that is because of
that doctor that saw the signs early during his treatment at
a shy Jack has gotten to spend some time with his favorite
bills player Bill
Statue of Liberty plan is experience is that these kids
they can make a lasting impact on them and you know that says
it's really cool part about it playboi carti let it go
last November the Buffalo Community left its own impact
on Allen after Josh's grandmother Patricia Allen
passed away shortly before the bills week 9 matchup against
the Seattle Seahawks Allen was the most loving most generous
grandmother I remember being a kid after the game she
was always one of the first persons we saw
I know that she was watching that day so the best way to
honor it was go out there and play hard times but I ran it in
there and I just had to point up and let her know let my
family know that she was
on my mind and she was in that in the stadium with us and
a just and me have been emptied that day but the Buffalo
faithful let there be no they were there for him I found out
that Josh grandmother passed away the night before made
a post it's just said let's donate $17 to Oceanside
Children's Hospital which is his charity of choice for
the $75,000 150000 more than a million dollars
today more than 27,000 people have raised 1.4 million dollars
for the hospital which now Bears both a fund and a wing
and Patricia Allen's name I'm at a loss for words and I know
my family is and we can't thank you guys enough for allowing us
to be a part of this special Hospital
that it's it's hard to describe it to know that she's going to
have an everlasting impact here in Buffalo to me and my family
that that means the world to me please kind he's done a lot
to the hospital and I'm grateful for it because what
people do for the hospital can help kids like me and help them
feel better in my family and Randy and Dad is here and
intertwined here in Buffalo for rest of my life
