Activist and YouTuber Regan Benson live streamed on Friday as she transported the homeless man known as Robert to a Denver hospital to have his foot amputated.
Robert suffered severe frostbite earlier in the year as he was found to be living on a park bench on the side of a busy street in Englewood, Colorado. Benson managed to convince the man to come with her and initially put him up in a hotel before he was briefly housed by a host family before his surgery.
Benson updated Robert’s housing conditions by announcing that he would be going to an out-patient facility for at least two weeks following the surgery. She indicated she may need help from her supporters to find Robert adequate housing after that point.
Robert was lucid and seemed to understand what was going on during the ride to the hospital with Benson. She stressed that he needed to speak up if anything happened that he was uncomfortable with during his stay in the hospital and promised that she would be there for him following the amputation.
This is a breaking news story.
