My name is Jerrelle, but most people call me Baby. For over 25 years, I've dedicated my life to building and selling skates for both adults and kids. Helping people find joy and confidence through skating has always been my passion, and I've loved watching the skate community grow. I’ve always tried to go above and beyond to help others, even when it wasn’t profitable for me, because it’s never just been about money—it’s about making a difference for people.

Unfortunately, a bump on my tailbone recently turned into a painful abscess and infection, which landed me in the hospital. I'm currently still receiving treatment and will be unable to work or drive for at least three weeks, possibly up to five, as I heal.

This unexpected medical emergency has left me unable to do the work I love and support myself. The hospital bills and medications are already adding up, and I'm also worried about covering my rent, food, and some special needs during this time. While my family would help if they could, they are already stretched thin supporting other loved ones who need them even more right now. I don't want to add to their burden, so I'm reaching out to my community for support.

Any help during this difficult period will go directly toward my medical expenses and basic living costs while I recover. Your support will make a real difference, helping me focus on healing so I can get back to doing what I love—bringing smiles and confidence to the skate community.
