Reader Email - Viva La Stool From Officer Richard “Dic” Donohue Watching The B’s From Spaulding Rehab Today
Reader Email
El Pres,
Good morning, my name is Officer Matt Donovan with the Transit Police. I am the liason offcier for Richard “Dic” Donohue who was critically wounded during the fire fight with the Boston Marathon bombing suspects. Me and Dic are good friends and have known each other since the first day of the academy a little over three years ago. We are both big fans of the stool and we just received a few Boston Strong Barstool shirts that I ordered for him. We tried taking a viva la stool pic yesterday from his hospital room at Spaulding but they came out like shit. He is doing a bunch of interviews for the first time today but as soon as he’s done with that he wants to send the pic in to represent the stool. I just wanted to give you the heads up now so that maybe you could post it up before the Bruins game this afternoon. Me and him are going to be hanging out here watching it and I figured maybe people seeing a pic of him doing well and supporting the team may fire them up and help get us another win. I know you usually don’t post things on the weekend but I hope this one makes it up and the players get cranked up after seeing it.
Thank you,
Matt Donovan
As everybody knows Dic Donohue was the police officer who was shot and basically killed in the firefight with the two terrorists. He lost so much blood that he had to be revived at Mt. Auburn hospital. Well in what truly is a remarkable testament to the human spirit Dic is now on the road to recovery at Spaulding Rehab getting ready to watch the B’s hammer the Rangers in Game 2. Yup I would say this is a good omen for today. Boston Strong indeed.
