As noted before at this link, RAW GM Mick Foley announced on Facebook this week that he needs a $60,000 hip replacement surgery but the operation is up in the air after his health insurance provider dropped him this year.
Foley asked fans via Twitter not to set up any crowdfunding campaigns to help pay for his surgery, asking them to instead donate to groups who truly need assistance. Foley wrote:

To no surprise, a fan named Abby set up a GoFundMe campaign for Foley’s surgery. The campaign was up to $600 at one point but it appears all donations have been refunded. You can see the campaign at this link and read about how Foley helped the 14 year old raise money during her own “Abby’s Million Dollar Dream” campaign for cancer research a few years ago. The young fan just felt the need to help Foley after he previously helped her but it appears Foley got in touch and asked her to kill the campaign. Foley commented on the campaign that was created:
