Git-R-Done Foundation donates $1.2 million for Alexis Verzal Children's Rehabilitation Hospital at Madonna

Larry the Cable Guy's charitable organization, the Git-R-Done Foundation, is donating $1.2 million to develop a new 14-bed children's rehabilitation center within the Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital. The new facility will be named "The Alexis Verzal Children's Rehabilitation Hospital at Madonna" in honor of the 13-month-old Texas girl who suffered a brain injury at her daycare in 2008.

"I had the chance to see Madonna's work in helping kids overcome all types of injuries and illness and after I met Alexis and saw the big courage in her little body, I knew we had to dedicate the hospital in her honor," stated Larry the Cable Guy.

Pathways
Follow the journey of four individuals as they find their way from the tragedy of brain injury to new hope through rehabilitation. Though each person is unique, with different types of injury, they all share the same path - the sudden shock and heartbreak of an unexpected accident, cognitive and physical damage, followed by life-saving medical care and intense rehabilitation. Forming a new, broader family with their doctors, nurses, therapists and others in their Madonna care team, these courageous people - Alexis, Derek, Mandy and Christian - make their way to a new future filled with hope and possibilities.
