He told his fans on Instagram that he was preparing for surgery: “If you’re somewhere impacted with ice, be careful. With a rare condition and a slip a week ago, I’m having spinal surgery in 1 hour.” And his girlfriend Sarah Allison will be there every step of the way. She told his fans:
“Nicky doesn’t half-ass anything, so I’m sure he’s going to kick butt and be in recovery soon. Thank you all, for all the love & support. For the few who need to hear it, please don’t stress us out with hateful judgmental comments. Everyone do yourself and everyone a favour by replacing your typical negative self-talk and comments with positive, loving, and encouraging ones. We all deserve it. ? NickyB Team.”
Sarah has vowed to leave no stone unturned as she has even set up a fundraiser for Nicholas. She added: “I’m so seriously just overwhelmed and upset with not being there for Nicky’s surgery and the fact he has so much financial stress hanging over the both of us and he needs to just focus on being well and recovering.
“I know everyone’s having hardships right now, but if anyone can help out towards this, I know the burden will be eased for him. And I in this time when our focus should be on his recovery and keeping him from a financially impacted depression because sadly there’s little keeping his brain from it.” So how long will Nicholas be out of action? Well, it should not be too long as Sarah revealed:
“He’s looking at 4-5 days recovery in ICU after his surgery,” she wrote. “Sweet man says he’ll be back to finishing the fence in no time. But sweet boy is also clumsy boy who has two broken phones and only broken tablets now he can’t even hardly keep the camera going although the mic is impossible to keep on.”
She then added: “His mental health is as important to me as his physical health is and if he’s not able to listen to Bob’s Burgers throughout his duration in recovery, with the blinding lights, the confinement to a bed/facility, and being stuck without his daily activities which keep him at ease staying busy, IDK how he’ll make it without trying to leave.”
