Ex-Bear hero William “The Fridge” Perry has been released from Aiken Regional Medical Center after a month-long stay resulting from complications from Guillain-Barre Syndrome.
Perry’s agent, Adam Plotkin said Perry is receiving in-patient rehabilitation at an undisclosed location. He expects Perry to be in rehab for at least a month.
Plotkin said Perry has regained strength and been in good spirits and is no longer in serious condition.
Perry was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre last summer, and it developed into Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), a disorder of the peripheral nervous system.
People who saw him at an autograph signing in Chicago last winter said that Perry:
“Has lost a significant amount of weight, perhaps more than 100 pounds.”
