Jeff got a new wheel chair - it's fast and furious. Vroom, Vroom.
The new chair is smaller and very mobile. He can easily reach the brakes and control his own comings and goings.
His afternoons and evening are filled with freedom to zip around the facility, socialize, entertain visitors and just be himself.
Head North , an organization dedicated to helping individuals with spinal cord injuries, came by to visit Jeff and Amanda on Tuesday. At 1pm, the representative showed up and conducted a brief interview before granting Jeff $1000 to help out. They also have plans to pay him a visit when he gets home and consider him for an additional grant.
Jan. 3, 2012, Jeff Adkins life changed when a car turned left in front of him while riding his motorcycle to work. He didn’t have time to stop and suffered a T3 spinal cord injury. He is paralyzed from his nipple line down and now requires a wheelchair to get around. He needs the support of his family/friends during this life changing transition. His blog helps communicate updates on how he is doing, as well as what others can do to help. Feel free to comment, sending your love and support.
