In the early hours of Sunday, September 14th, 2025, our beloved nephew, Jackson Ammerman, was a passenger in a devastating car accident. He suffered severe injuries and is currently in an induced coma as doctors prepare for critical surgeries on his neck and spine.
Jackson’s injuries include:
• A broken neck at C6–C7 with a torn ligament
• Several facial and jaw fractures
• A reconstructed forehead after a severe scalp injury
• 3 broken thoracic spine vertebrae
• 4 broken ribs
• A brain bruise
Jackson has always been known as a friend to everyone—the kind of young man who never hesitates to lend a hand or brighten someone’s day. He is deeply loved by his family, friends, and community, and now he needs all of us to rally around him in prayer and support. Jackson is a cowboy and an extremely talented horse trainer.
We ask for your continued prayers—for healing, for strength, and for comfort as Jackson faces the long and difficult journey ahead. Please also lift up his three friends who were with him in the accident, as they too are recovering from serious, life threatening injuries.
If you feel moved to give beyond prayer, we are humbly asking for financial support. Every donation will go directly toward:
• Jackson’s medical expenses
• Travel costs for his rehabilitation
• Any special equipment and tools he will need for his recovery
Our hearts are heavy, but our faith is strong. We believe in the power of prayer and the strength of community. With God’s healing hands and the love and support of so many, Jackson can overcome this.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your prayers, encouragement, and generosity. Please continue to keep Jackson and his friends in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time. May God Bless you.
