Derrick is a comedian from Syracuse who now lives in Atlanta. He is a frequent visitor to Hudson Grille and Siracusa's on gamedays and travels back 'home' often to do shows at the funnybone and other comedy joints and also to attend Cuse games.

His website is http://www.leftarmcomedy.com/ Left arm comedy is a play on the fact that he is vertically paralyzed on his left side.

But he certainly doesnt need help for him. He needs help for a little 5 yr old girl that he befriended about a year ago at a 'make a wish' type event. She had terminal cancer back then - but has beaten it on 4 different occasions. Unfortunately last weekend things took a turn for the worse. She was released from the hospital a few days ago to go home to hospice. She doesn't have much longer.

Here is a story about how they met and their relationship:

Heartbreaking stuff. Can't even imagine.

as a father to a now 10 month old, I couldn't imagine either. Appreciate the support.
 
Sharing with folks i work with. A buddy of mine at work has a brother who is also a comedian in LA. Another buddy as well who went through an almost identical scenario with his nephew who passed just this past january. Totally not fair...
