Victim of North Medford Shooting.
Donation protected
Hi there.... Normally we are not ones to ask for help, we push through everything, we work our butt's off and have NEVER asked for assistance in this way.... But as some of you know, Jesse was involved in the shooting near North Medford High-school....
For protecting his own home... Doing what any man would do, confronting strange people hanging around our back yard, and looking inside our windows while he was here... These people have never been seen anround our apartment building before this....
The suspect was arrested shortly after, and we have found out since that the man who did this, is a known and convicted felon.... Just got released from a 10 year sentence less than 1 year ago for killing someone else!!!! This man should not have been on these streets!!! Our family, children, and community were in danger with this man on the streets!!! The damage from the single bullet wound was huge! It severed the brachial artery, as well as shattered his humerous, he has had 1 surgery so far on repairing the artery, will have another soon to repair the humerous, and they are thinking he'll need to have hand surgery now from the nerve damage this all caused..
To get to the point of this.... Jesse.... The kindest man you'd ever meet, all the nurses while he was in the hospital just always said how kind, sweet and charming he was to them, for taking good care of him... Someone who has taken care of himself for so long, now has to depend on other's to help him recover from this... He has to rely on his girlfriend Meghan to take care of him, feed him, shower him, put him to bed carefully all while also going to work everyday to support the income while Jesse is at home recovering.
We're not asking for much, though we know this won't cover everything, but every little thing helps... Even if you wanted to make a homemade meal for Jesse, send him encouraging messages, pray for him, he is having a rough time adjusting to being back where it all happened, and now being injured and not able to defend himself...
