My Story

My name is Jeremy Pitoy. I am 17 years old. I was injured in a car accident last september, that had changed my whole life. I had incomplete C5-6 (neck) spinal cord injury. I thank God that my spinal cord was not severed, but it was badly contused. I have been paralyzed since the accident. My upper body is getting stronger & after 6 weeks, I started to move my left toes. Now I have more movements on my left leg. but still none on my right.

I have a hope and dream that one day I will walk again. There is a little problem though. The outpatient therapy that I am getting in the hospital is limited due to health insurance. I was told that these therapies will only help me to be more independent on the wheelchair. One day I was introduced to a physical therapy and training that are unlike any others... It’s called Adapt Advance.

I believe with your prayers and intense therapy will help my dream comes true... my dream to walk

Standing up

Hi Friends and Family,
Thank you so much for your monetary supports and continuous prayer for Jeremy. We are overwhelmed with gratitude. Jeremy had started his intense training in Project Walk since Jan 3rd, 2008 and made tremendous progress. He also continues his outpatient therapy in the hospital. His left leg is getting stronger , he can stand with 1 person assistance for 10-15 second . His right leg is coming alive, he is starting to wiggle his right toes. He can move some fingers and his left thumb. Still very weak, but are signs of more healing. Jeremy started school again past winter break taking only 4 classes because his therapies are priority at this time. The school district provided a person to aid him in his school activities. God has been good and We pray that God will reward your kindness a hundred fold.

God bless,
Jeremy's Mom & Dad
