Buffalo Hospital Unveils Wing Dedicated to Josh Allen's Late Grandmother

John R. Oishei Children's Hospital in Buffalo unveiled the Patricia Allen Pediatric Recovery Wing this week in honor of Josh Allen's late grandmother.

Last November, after the Bills' 44–34 win over the Seahawks, head coach Sean McDermott told reporters of the death in Allen's family. Shortly thereafter, Bills fans started donating money in $17 increments to the children's hospital, an homage to the quarterback's jersey number.

By the end of 2020, the fund surpassed $1 million, per the hospital. The fund has grown to over $1.4 million, the Bills said Tuesday.

"I can't tell you how special it is to see the outpouring of support for me and my family during this tough time," Allen said in a statement last November.
