Kennedy's Poor Health Prompts T-Shirt Auction

Wednesday 05th of December 2007 02:36:52 PM

Ray Kennedy, a famous Red’s football player in Liverpool is battling a serious disease, Parkinson’s disease. This UK legend has triumphed over the years beginning when he signed on with Bill Shankly and then becoming a winger from a striker. While part of the club Kennedy was untouchable, he scored 72 goals in 393 football games and was a major contributor to the victory of the 1981 European Cup.

Sadly, Ray Kennedy now battles with a serious disease that prevents him from moving like he once did playing football. Parkinson’s greatly impacts your physical ability which is key in football. Parkinson’s can make slower in physical activities, shake involuntary, have a change in speech and all of this can lead to depression. Due to these symptoms, people with Parkinson’s disease find it difficult or impossible to work or take part in physical activities. Kennedy’s health has recently taken a turn for the worse and additional help is needed from his devoted fans.

Parkinson’s disease is devastating to the individual suffering from the disease, friends and family. It also requires expensive medical treatment. Due to Ray Kennedy’s contributions to the Red’s, the organisation is auctioning t-shirts to help Kennedy’s cause. To support Ray Kennedy and his treatment, red t-shirts are being auctioned off on eBay. The shirts are signed by Kennedy and Jimmy Case. If you win this auction you can request that other members sign the shirt and you will be awarded the shirt in person by a former player. To find more memorabilia for sale and auction visit the Red’s site at http://www.retroreds.co.uk/6.html.
