PLEASE DONATE TO OUR 2nd ANNUAL CHARITY
YARD SALE Supporting TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury)
Meet Jacalyn - Traumatic Brain Injury Survivor
Jacalyn
suffered a closed head injury in a car accident in February of 2008. Her life hanging in the balance, on life
support and induced into a coma to help aid the swelling of her brain, her
prognosis was uncertain until she could awaken. Once she did awaken, her next
obstacle was to endure extensive rehabilitation to learn how to walk, talk, and
even feed herself again. Jacalyn has come a long way since the day of her
accident through years of steadfastness by working on attention deficits,
memory loss, motor planning, executive functioning, and developing a sense of
self.
She continues her recovery with some residual difficulties but returned
to school and is now a recent graduate from the occupational therapy assistant
program at Grossmont College. Her empathy and shared experiences will be
valuable in her field. After receiving the help from her rehabilitation team
and Grossmont OT instructors, her goal now is to help others recover and
rehabilitate from traumatic brain injuries. This fundraiser is an important
part of her journey in helping
others and spreading awareness.
Jacalyn, her friends, and family will
be holding a Fundraiser Yard Sale on July 29th. Proceeds will go to the SDBIF!
