The wife of 'Lemonade Guy' Derrick Moore, known for his shouts of "Lemonade, lemonade, like grandma made," at Valley sporting events, says the beloved vendor is suffering from an unknown medical condition.
"It's really hard," said Renita Sanders-Moore. "You know he was paying for his own medical insurance before COVID, you know. But after that we couldn't afford that private insurance anymore."
Sanders-Moore says that over the past few weeks her husband has become increasingly disoriented, and there have been two incidents where she's had to call paramedics because he was sweating and panting uncontrollably. "It seems to be a neurological problem," Sanders-Moore said.
But since the couple no longer has health insurance, Sanders-Moore says she doesn't know how she'll pay for a diagnosis or medical treatment.
The health problems come after the pandemic forced fans out of stadiums, and left the famed lemonade vendor without the job he loved. "He's a working man. And I know this is devastating to him because that's his passion," Sanders-Moore said.
