<div><strong>Gene the Young Man</strong>

</div>


<div><br />My name is Camelle and I am Gene’s mother. Gene just celebrated his 24th birthday! Gene had aspirations of being an NFL Kicker one day! Gene just graduated from Bowie State University with his undergraduate degree in Communications and was just accepted for Graduate School for his Masters in Organizational Communications! Gene has been a good student and Exceptional Athlete his entire life! He was coaching student athletes from middle school to college level  in football to build the next generation of kickers and volunteering as the kicking coach at his alma mater, Bowie State University where he was a part of a two-peat CIAA Championship Team,  holds many school  records.
</div>


<div> 

</div>


<div>Gene loves to mentor and believes in volunteerism to help other people. He is  a baptized believer growing up since 5 years old as a member of Fort Washington Baptist Church attending children’s church, Sunday school and the children’s choir.<br /><br /><strong>Gene’s Passions</strong>

</div>


<div> 

</div>


<div>Our Gene is passionate about his family and especially his baby sister Ashley who is in her senior year for her undergraduate degree in Biology as she is Pre-med! He is passionate about bringing people together, creating music,  writing lyrics, he writes poetry, television production, radio production  and loves to support causes that help student athletes . He recognizes the importance of receiving support as a graduate of the Jack &amp; Jill of America, Greater Suburban Maryland Chapter.

<div><strong>The Tragedy</strong><br /><br />
</div>


<div>The day the earth stood still for us was January 22nd, 2022 at 1:13am when my husband and I received a phone call from our son’s co-worker in Washington. D.C., that he was a victim of multiple gun shot wounds in the back, walking out from his place of business as a Supervisor, and to come quickly. This was like something out of a mistaken identity nightmare!<br /><br /><strong>Gene’s Medical Needs</strong>

</div>


<div> 

</div>


<div>Today, we now know that our son Gene has a T-12 Spinal Chord Injury and has a very long road of recovery ahead of him. The teams of Doctors he needs in neurology, orthopedics, physical therapist, occupational therapist, nurses and not to mention the adaptive changes for medical equipment at our home to create access for a wheelchair and a new normal for him to have a healthy and sustainable quality of life.<br /><br /><strong>Recommended Treatment for Gene</strong>

</div>


<div> 

</div>


<div>The recommended treatment for Gene is a comprehensive approach of intense physical strengthening with a Physical Trainer to build him back up and provide Functional Electrical Stimulation, Trauma Psychiatrist to help with his PTSD and new normal and being able to process the 5 Stages of Grief, Occupational Therapy to learn adaptive new life skills, an intense day camp after his initial 6 weeks rehabilitation specifically geared for Spinal Chord Injury Victims.

</div>


<div> 

</div>


<div>We will also need to purchase a new handicap accessible vehicle for him for transport and adaptive features. The bills have already started coming in and we will need access to funds pretty soon. This is all very time sensitive for his life. Gene needs to continue therapy as the doctors explained the heart is a muscle as well and the hard impacts of muscle atrophy can be permanent. We are in a race with the clock.

</div>


<div> 

</div>


<div>Our faith is strong in our body of believers around the world! My husband (Gene Sr.) and I still believe in the good in people! We have prayers coming from legions of people around the world! We have asked All People to pray and help us manifest the following:

</div>


<div> 

</div>


<div><strong>God Is Still On The Throne!<br /></strong><strong style="font-size:1.0625rem;">Daily Manifestation for Gene</strong><strong><br /></strong>

</div>


<div> 

</div>


<div>Gene Carson II is undergoing a complete healing at an accelerated rate physically, mentally &amp; emotionally. Gene’s full strength is coming through more and more each day. He is talking a mile a minute and is walking and running at full speed. He is laughing with his family and friends. His mental state is strong and vibrant and his mind and cognitive skills are sharp! Gene is filled with the joy of the Lord Jesus Christ!

<div><strong>Please join us in also reading Psalm 91</strong>

</div>


<div><strong>King James Version</strong>

</div>


<div> 

</div>


<div>91 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

</div>


<div>2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

</div>


<div>3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

</div>


<div>4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

</div>


<div>5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

</div>


<div>6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

</div>


<div>7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

</div>


<div>8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

</div>


<div>9 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

</div>


<div>10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

</div>


<div>11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

</div>


<div>12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

</div>


<div>13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

</div>


<div>14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

</div>


<div>15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

</div>


<div>16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

</div>
