Little Warrior Motorcade rescheduled to this week following mom’s emergency surgery

The Little Warrior Motorcade was canceled suddenly late Friday afternoon but will take place this week.

Last week, Elijah Hennessey’s mom, Jessie started having really severe pain, so she was rushed to Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto.

She had to have emergency surgery to have her gallbladder removed, so the family was unable to host the motorcade providing Elijah with the opportunity to wave thank you to the wider community for supporting him through his life-saving heart surgery.

Jessie has now also come through her surgery and is expected to be home soon.

That said, the Elijah Drive-By that was to be held on Sunday has been rescheduled to this Wednesday with the motorcade starting out from the French Catholic High School at 5:30 pm to 22 Washington Crescent, Elijah’s grandparents’ house, Howie and Darla Hennessey.
