Like Charlie from Sacramento, I also found your page when searching for Hinder doing "Born To Be Wild." I found your story so inspiring I had to post and say, "Thank you for sharing."
The human spirit continues to amaze me!!

Jerry,
I came across your site while looking for a HINDER song for my playlist on MySpace. My brother was also in a car accident at the age of 21 and lived for 11 yrs in a care home after suffering a brain injury that affected his spinal cord. After being in and out of the hospital he contracted MRSA and it slowly took over his body. In 1997 he finally got what he wanted "to go home". He was my closest friend. The one thing my brother taught me was to Live for Today, and that "things happen for a reason". His accident has helped me appreciate live and to enjoy each new day.
I am glad to see that you were able to recover and live a very normal life. I am sorry to hear that your marriage didn't work out. It sounds like you aren't letting it stop you just like your accident hasn't. Thank you for showing the world that people with spinal cord injuries can go on and live outside in this not so normal world.
Charlie

Jerry,
Wanted to say hello. We grew up around each other in Prosperity when we were real young, played on the "Hawks" together....remember that?
Glad to see you doing well. I tell your story often to people.

Hey stranger!! Jerry, I was at the hospital almost every day after your accident. I also came to your house every single day for a long time just to keep you company. I'm not sure if you remember or not. You're truly the definition of a fighter and an inspiration. I remember some very dark times in your life right after the accident. I am so happy that you've moved on with your life and not let your disability hinder you for one second!!! And youre still the hottest guy from Beckley!! Love you

Hi Jerry,
It is Christy Hamby, a good friend of Cheri's....your website has touched my heart and you are an amazing man. From you, we all learn to NEVER give up..I had to have major open heart surgery at the age of 32, and I thought that was bad...you have endured much more than what I could ever...your spirit and your will is such an inspiration. Good luck with the website, I'm sure you will touch thousands, just as you have with me.
Take Care-Christy

Jerry,
This site you have created should be an inspiration to all of us. You have gone through so much and the fact that you have stayed positive and have moved forward with your life really makes me feel proud just to say that I know you. Keep it up!!

Hi Jerry,
I am the General manager for Spinal Cord Injuries Australia. I just read your article in the Register. Nice piece.
I unfortunately have heard many stories like yours, but more unfortunately have heard many stories of individuals that don't have the strength of character that you have displayed. We are always trying to improve the "System" from point of injury through rehab, transition and community involvement. This is so those who tend to slip through the gaps actually don't slip through the gaps and learn to participate in life in their own unique way.
Best of luck and well done!
