Barton Deiters was diagnosed and hospitalized with West Nile Virus back in September. As he's still there, a GoFundMe was set up to help his family keep up with expenses.
Barton Deiters of WOOD TV8 has been in the hospital for the last two weeks as doctors treat symptoms of West Nile. There currently is no cure for the mosquito-borne disease.
Over the weekend, we had our company holiday party. And right next door, WOOD-TV8 was having its holiday party!
After Shaffee and I had pounded a few, we decided: Why not cross the hall over to new territory?
We were especially surprised to see the TV folks had karaoke at their party!
