Corey Harrison, of Pawn Stars fame, is asking fans for help after the exorbitant costs of his medical bills following a motorcycle crash in Mexico.
\nIn January, Corey, 42, was left with 11 fractured ribs, a concussion, and facial injuries as a result of the accident, per TMZ. Life-threatening complications ensued, while Corey was also forced to miss the wedding of his father, Rick Harrison.
\nCorey, a mainstay in the wildly popular Pawn Stars show, told TMZ that he had prematurely checked himself out of hospital after two weeks due to mounting medical costs.<\/p>\n
This, he explained, led to further difficulties. While continuing to recover at his home in Tulum, Mexico, Corey experienced excruciating pain, leading to a house doctor administering IV fluids and morphine.
\nWhen Corey\u2019s oxygen level plummeted, he feared he might die. TMZ report that he couldn\u2019t afford to return to the same hospital where he\u2019d been treated, forcing friends to take him to a more affordable facility.
\nThere, Corey underwent three surgeries and spent an additional 18 days hospitalized.<\/p>\n
All told, the TV star claims to have spent close to $120,000 on medical bills. He told TMZ that he has just $400 in his bank account, having borrowed money from his father and friends to cover the costs.
\nCorey has since started a GoFundMe page in the hope that fans will come to his aid.<\/p>\n
