Actor Opens His Home to Elderly Neighbor Battling Cancer
A young actor is being praised after opening his doors to a sick, elderly neighbor who needed full-time care. Chris Salvatore struck up a friendship with Norma Cook while living across the hall from each other in a Hollywood apartment building. Cook was diagnosed with leukemia, and the doctors told her she could not be released until she had 24/7 health care in place. After hearing this, Salvatore set up a GoFundMe page and raised $50,000, enough to let Cook and her cat live with him and stay in the building she had felt comfort in over the last several decades.
