Jaidan Knight’s Recovery Fund

Help Bring Jaidan Home: Support Her Recovery

Seventeen weeks in the hospital. Countless procedures. Two hospital transfers. A relentless battle against a life-threatening brain infection.

But finally—some good news. Jaidan’s infection has cleared, her blood clots are stable, and she has taken the next big step in her recovery: on March 3rd, she moved to the Toronto Rehab Institute, where she is receiving world-class therapy.

Her progress is inspiring—she is pedaling on a stationary bike, saying more words each week, and fighting harder than ever to regain the life she once knew. But the reality is, Jaidan is starting from scratch. She is re-learning how to talk, walk, and regain independence, step by step, day by day.

Her next big milestone? Coming home.

That’s where we come in.

Bringing Jaidan home will require significant home modifications—wheelchair accessibility, specialized equipment, and essential renovations to make daily life safer and more manageable. These changes will allow Jaidan to focus on her recovery without barriers standing in her way.

Now, more than ever, her family needs our support.

Every donation—big or small—will help make her homecoming possible and ensure she has the best chance at a full recovery.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, generosity, and continued love for Jaidan. She is strong, but with our help, she will be even stronger.
