I just spoke to Jacob’s cousin @PaulyG103 in the hospital. He said they need your prayers and not condolences. He is out of surgery and in the ICU. He can make it through this. He is fighting for his life. Please please please pray for Jacob Blake. #Kenosha #PrayForJacobBlake

For people asking how I know Jacob, we grew up together. We are friends. We went to school together from Kindergarten through high school. His family asked me to deliver the message that he is still alive and he can make it through this, and that reports of his death are false.
