Episode Details

Richard Lloyd, guitar legend of Television and Marquee Moon, is fighting a brutal battle with bile duct cancer that’s left him bedridden and unable to tour — the lifeblood of his art and income. With tumors blocking surgery, he’s endured multiple ICU stays and sepsis, while his wife Sheila, his full-time caregiver, can’t work either. Medical bills are mounting, royalty disputes linger, and they’re desperately short on cash. A crowdfunding campaign has launched to raise $80K — already boosted by Patti Smith’s $5K donation — as Richard, usually upbeat, admits things are tough. He’s asking fans for any help they can give — whether it’s money or just sharing the word.
