Hudson Valley Man Gives the Best Get-Well Gift Ever
A man from Rockland County made his son's surgery recovery process just a little bit easier. Okay, a lot easier.
Hernia surgery isn't a whole lot of fun. You can ask Joseph Amorese of Easton, Pennsylvania, who just had the procedure. Knowing that this isn't exactly a pleasant experience, his father--a Rockland County man--sent him a get well card with just a little extra: a scratch-off card.
“I took my glasses off, I’m looking at it, I was pretty shocked to say the least,” Amorese said. “I had surgery so I didn’t jump up and down, but in my mind I was jumping up and down.”
New York Lottery officials presented Amorese with a ceremonial check Wednesday at Just A Dollar at 20 North Main St. in New City, where the “$7,000,000 Golden Ticket” scratch-off was purchased.
“Did it heal the hernia any faster?” 1010 WINS’ Glenn Schuck asked Amorese, who laughed and responded, “All the pain I felt, I did not feel for at least a couple of days.”
I'd go through all sorts of different surgeries for $7 million.
