Save Sweet Irish Jamie's Life

My boyfriend was in a terrible car accident at 17 years old. His heart stopped for 6 excruciating minutes and his face was completely smashed to bits. When he was revived, he found nothing but unbearable and permanent pain.

Over the past 15 years, he's had countless surgeries and procedures, seen every doctor in the country of Northern Ireland (and several in England), been gaslighted, abandoned, and ignored, and lost absolutely everything. The accident broke his jaw and he had dental surgery done by an abusive and lying doctor who performed malpractice (without legal consequences). This has left his jaw dislocated and locked to a nearly closed position, making it difficult to eat, speak, or function. The excruciating pain and constant pressure on his nerves has spread throughout his head, face, neck, shoulders, and torso, causing his whole body to become crooked and misaligned, as well as intense sensitivity of sensations. He can barely stand to be touched, even gently. His nervous system is completely dysregulated and it has caused malabsorption and full-body inflammation. He's currently 90 lbs and barely able to function in daily tasks. He has described the pain as having your head being crushed every minute of every day in a continuously tightening vice. His ears bleed regularly from the pressure of it and the pain makes him vomit frequently.

Now, after over a decade of hopelessness and countless doctors shrugging and telling him nothing can be done to heal his broken face or relieve his pain, he's finally gotten an opportunity to get treatment through physiotherapy. A skilled physiotherapist has found that he has severe C1 and C2 cervical nerve root damage and displacement, along with his dislocated jaw, which has caused the extreme pain to radiate throughout his body. She thinks it can be partially relieved through weekly and gruesome therapy, but the NHS covers nothing. It's £100 per session and he'll have to get them weekly for months or maybe years. He has thousands in medical debt already from 15 years of medical gaslighting and negligence, so unfortunately, he'll need much more than what his therapy costs. I've set the amount he needs as £5,000, but that's a very low estimate. But anything helps!

He desperately wants to live and to improve his quality of life (which is currently zero quality at all). He needs a lot of help financially to make this happen because he doesn't qualify for disability income or any government aid in his country (totally broken system!). Please help me prove to him that human beings are kind, compassionate, and caring. He's only ever experienced abuse and neglect before he met me, but I can't help him all by myself.

How we met:

A few years ago, feeling like he had no choice but to end his life, he attempted suicide and committed self-harm to try to get relief from the suffering. Chronic pain is extremely isolating. He lost friendships, relationships, and trust in anyone. But in 2023, in a last effort to make a human connection before leaving this world, he got on an app that let you make friends with people around the world. By a miracle of God, he was matched with me, and our journey together began. I felt drawn to him and his story. My heart connected with his the moment we met in person in 2024, and it was love at first sight. This is how we saved each other from across an ocean. This is how a beautiful relationship flourished out of trauma. He thought no one could ever see anything but his brokenness. But I see how breathtakingly stunning, smart, intuitive, goofy, caring, loyal, respectful, and adventurous he is. Now, he fights for his life every day. I'm so proud of him and love him with all my heart! The message that we want everyone to know from our story is that IT'S NEVER TOO LATE. You're never too far gone to be loved. You're never too broken to be whole again.
