Support Magician Eric Jones During His Medical Recovery
We are raising funds to support Eric Jones — professional magician and America’s Got Talent finalist — during an unexpected and serious medical crisis that has forced him to step away from work and focus entirely on recovery.
What Happened
Earlier this year, Eric experienced a sudden medical emergency that brought everything to a halt. After extensive testing, doctors discovered that his heart was functioning at less than 20% capacity and that two blood clots had formed in the lower chambers of his heart. His cardiology team immediately placed him on blood thinners and recommended an urgent heart cauterization, which was performed the same day.
When Eric woke up from anesthesia, something was wrong—his speech was impaired, and he was unable to use his right arm. Doctors witnessed him having a seizure, and an MRI later confirmed that one of the blood clots had broken free, traveled to his brain, and caused a stroke.
To prevent further damage, doctors placed Eric into a medically induced coma. While his condition has stabilized, the stroke significantly affected his balance, speech, and strength on one side of his body. In addition to the stroke, Eric has suffered multiple heart attacks over the past several months. His doctors have now recommended a double bypass surgery, followed by an extended and carefully monitored recovery period.
The Impact
As a result of these medical events, Eric has had to cancel all work from October through March, with the likelihood of additional time away from performing after surgery. Like many professional performers, Eric’s livelihood depends entirely on his ability to travel and work—and right now, that simply isn’t possible Between mounting medical bills and months of lost income, the financial strain has been significant and ongoing as Eric focuses on healing.
How the Funds Will Be Used
Funds raised through this campaign will help cover: Medical bills, surgery, and post-operative care - Rehabilitation, medications, and follow-up treatment - Income lost during recovery - Everyday living expenses while Eric is unable to perform or travel.
How You Can Help
Many friends, fans, and colleagues have asked how they can support Eric and his family during this time. You can buy tickets to the show and or use the green button to donate to his Go Fund Me campaign. This fundraiser provides a direct and meaningful way to help ease the financial burden while he concentrates on recovery. Thank you for your generosity, encouragement, prayers, and support. It truly means more than words can express.
