The initiative was conducted on social media to secure the necessary funds for the infant's medical treatment.
The entertainer explained that he had visited Pyden several times in the hospital and always found him crying due to the constant pain. Beside them was the little one's mother, Magdalene Khamisi, whom Eric described as a powerful woman. "
Tonight from 8pm to 12am, I'll be raising money for the baby and mother on all my social media platforms," read part of the caption.
The comedian added that apart from raising money for the baby's treatment, he hopes to help the family move from their single room in Kawangware to a better house.
