Hey there. Just getting things packed up and cleaned up so we can start our journey home with the Slettens. But since Jayci had such an awesome work out yesterday, I wanted to get these videos on for y'all to see. She worked sooo hard yesterday and you will see it in her face. You will see the swollen eyes of one, and the too much sun of some too. In the last video, Jayci is standing. Woo Hoo. She is a lot stronger than the last time she did this and it definately shows. She did great! It was a great day! Oh, and when you see Cassi jump in the video, she wasn't trying to steel the show but they were trying to see who is taller. Haha! Hope you enjoy!!

Welcome to Jayci's blog!
This blog is dedicated to Jayci Wittmier. We are using this blog to keep her friends up to date on all her progress.
Jayci Wittmier, 17 years old. Jayci is an exceptional athlete, student and a great friend to many. She has an amazing spirit and is a joy to be around. On August 10,2009, her 16th birthday, Jayci was a passenger in a terrible car accident. She cracked her C2,3,4 & 6 vertabrae in her neck and broke her C5. Swift Current hospital arranged to have her moved to Saskatoon via air ambulance. She arrived at the Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon, transferred to City Hospital in late Sept. for rehab and was discharged in late February, 2010. She is classified as a C4-5 complete spinal cord injury. Jayci is currently completing her grade 12 year and will accomplish one of her goals of graduating in June, 2011, along with her class. She is also working on another goal, which is to walk again, with her training at Project Walk in Carlsbad, CA and at First Steps in Regina, SK. Jayci's family is asking for you to pray for Jayci's full recovery. BELIEVE!

I was a bit hesitant in commenting because I didn't want to interrupt your journey home. I'm taking it for granted that you have made it home safe & sound.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work, Jayci. You have improved a tremendous amount. Improvement looks good on you.
We have been watching the news and lately there has been some interesting stuff on spinal cord injuries. They are doing things with electrical impulses. It shows where patients that have been paralyzed from the chest down are actually standing and also taking steps. Amazing stuff.
Keep the faith everyone. Progress is a great thing.
We think of you all often.
Will see you in June.
Luv ya lots,
U. Jack & A. Jacki
