Hi, I am Jakob Lathery. I am a quadriplegic as a result of a motocross accident I suffered on July 1, 2001. I still love to go watch his many races as possible, however, it is getting harder and harder to do because my van is slowly breaking down. Since the accident, I have had 3 neck surgeries, a cardiac pac and a diaphram pacer. On average, I spend about 1/3 of the year, each year, in the hospital. Also, I recieve no disability income. I need help with organizing fundraisers.

Jakob:
I got your intake form yesterday. I will be in contact with you shortly. I have been real tied up the past day or so. I will give you a call and we can talk about how we can help.
I will talk to you soon,

Hey Jakob:
It was really good to talk to you tonight. You sure have had a rough road. That is what makes your positive attitude so amazing.
Go over to the SCI forum and send a note to Jeremy Bader. I am sure you guys can get along. The only problem is that you are a James Stewart Fan and he like Chad Reed.
I will plan to come by to see you in the not too distant future and we can talk more about what we can do to help you.
