Support Grace at the Green Light, Support Mr. Mike Support Grace at the Green Light, Support Mr. Mike!

Mr. Mike, as the neighborhood youngsters call him, is a 68-year-old disabled veteran that served in the armed forces overseas. Mike was stationed at F.E. Warren for two years and in Germany for two years during the mid-1970s. He raised five children and supported them through adulthood. Mike would eventually come to New Orleans to take care of his mother after Hurricane Katrina; she passed in 2013, which is when Mike’s life changed.

Mike rented a room and stayed there for five years, but that house would eventually be sold. The new owner at the time had allowed Mike to live on his property, in a camper. Unfortunately, that camper was destroyed during Hurricane Ida, forcing Mike to find elsewhere to live. During this time, Mike’s health was rapidly deteriorating, and he had become out of touch with his children and immediate family.

Marlene Durel, co-owner of the Voodoo Two, purchased the home next door to renovate and has been allowing Mike to live there while she renovated the home around him. Now, the home is ready to be put to use and Marlene wants to assist Mike in finding a new camper so that he could live in it on her property.  Grace at the Green Light is helping to keep Mike in a home and requests your support!

We need $7,500 to purchase to a new camper that includes air conditioning, carpet, appliances and a working bathroom so Mike can live comfortably on her property and without need for necessities. 

Please help now. Also Mike will be at the VooDooTwo, 330 Carondelet St, on July 8, 2022 from 5:30-7:30 so everyone can meet him and he can thank you for your support. Please pass this around to your veteran friends. 

You can donate to Mr. Mike here:

Our Producer & Assistant Director, Shane Norris wa Our Producer & Assistant Director, Shane Norris was featured in Ochsner's latest commerical, but that isn't the good news! @tipitinas @ochsnerhealth 

Soon after the start of our weekly livestreamed music shows at the beginning of the pandemic, Shane was unfortunately diagnosed with prostate cancer. Shane began researching different treatments for his diagnosis, but became worried that he would have to deal with worrisome side effects that came along with surgery or radiation treatments, such as erectile dysfunction, incontinence and depression.

Eventually, Shane would be approached with the option to undergo a new treatment that had not been done in Louisiana yet, Focal One HIFU. Focal One HIFU includes an MRI pinpointing the tumor's location -- then HIFU aims ultrasound waves just at the tumor, sparing healthy, surrounding tissue and nerves. Shane accepted the offer and had his procedure in November of 2021. He was able to go home the same day of the surgery, is cancer-free and had no side effects.

We'd like to graciously thank Ochsner Health for featuring Shane and providing the best options in his time of need.
