Jonathans Story: Jonathan is a 38 year old father, fiancé, stepfather, son, nephew, and the BEST BROTHER! He unfortunately suffered from a tragic accident on July 16, 2022. He was riding his four wheeler when his hands and arms went numb causing him to lose control. Jonathan hit an embankment, flipped, and the four wheeler landed on top of him. Jonathan was then carried by ambulance to Wayne Memorial for triage followed by being life flighted to Greenville. After emergency surgery that night (cervical fusion from C2-C7), we learned that Jonathan suffered a "complete" spinal cord injury and is now paralyzed from his neck down. He was on the ventilator in the surgical ICU for 3 weeks but is now breathing on his own and trach free! He is actually having small movements periodically in 3 of his fingers and having sensations which updated his injury to an "incomplete" spinal cord injury (Stage B)! Jonathan is still paralyzed from his chest down (including his arms, hands, legs, and feet). He needs the best resources to hopefully recover more movement. Jonathan has overcome so many medically obstacles in 9 weeks including pneumonia twice, staph infection, C-Diff, as well as temperature and blood pressure challenges. He is still fighting some issues but we so excited to announce that he come home on Thursday, September 22! We are now waiting for one medical condition to heal and then we can go to rehab! Unfortunately he does not have insurance that will cover the out of state rehab. I am doing a couple of fundraisers to help raise the money for Jonathan's rehab so that he can have the best resources available for his overall recovery. (Hopefully in Atlanta, GA!) Thank you for your support!!!
