Eric Dane struggles to get into wheelchair
Eric was seen using a wheelchair at Toronto Airport, appearing noticeably thinner than before, according to the New York Post. At one point, a friend had to assist Dane out of his vehicle before getting into the wheelchair.
This comes days after Eric explained why he missed the Grey’s Anatomy reunion at this year’s Emmy Awards. He revealed that a serious fall had landed him in the hospital, leaving him no option but to miss out on the great reunion.
Dane, who played Dr Mark Sloan in the series, said, “So I was in the hospital during Emmys getting stitches put in my head, I missed an opportunity I was really looking forward to.” He further told the Washington Post that it would have been great to meet Jesse and reunite with some of his peers.
