Media mogul Tyler Perry is donating $50,000 to a man who was left paralyzed from the waist down after he jumped into a creek to save a 4-year-old girl near Atlanta, Ga.
Michael Patterson, 43, severed his spine and broke his neck in three different places while doing the good deed.
The family of Patterson thanked Perry on a Facebook page dedicated to his recovery.

Its his money and he does what he wants. what did you give. Good Deed Mr. Perry
NO, he doesn’t owe you or anybody else anything. He gives because he wanted to, that was a very brave and selfless thing that man did. Some folks are such parasite, always want, always thinking others owes them.
Again, our very own black people do not step up unless we are near death!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So let get this straight, you have to be near death for Tyler Perry to give someone some assistance!
How much did you give?
