A Strong Spirit
On August 7, 2009 Jeffrey Guest was in a car accident that left him paralyzed from the waist down.
I first met Jeffrey about 15 years ago when he was just a 3rd grader dreaming of being a football player. Jeffrey was too young to play, but he would come watch his older brother practice with the youth football team that I coached.
Jeffrey was a gregarious, vivacious little bit who exuded confidence and charm. He believed before he ever played football that he would be better than the big boys he came to watch.
He was right. Jeffrey became a Danville High School football player with the speed and skill to take over a game. Jeffrey made plays that often dazzled the crowd, at times changing the outcome of the contest with his indomitable spirit.
That indomitable spirit is once again put to the test. A test greater than any of us can imagine or begin to understand. On August 7, 2009 Jeffrey lost his ability to walk and as you might imagine, he wants it back.
Jeffrey believes he can walk again, just like he believed he would be the football player he became.
Pursuit of this dream requires more than strong will and determination. Rehabilitation of a spinal cord injury is extremely expensive and Jeffrey needs help to make his new dream of walking again come true.
Family, friends and community members are joining together to give Jeffrey the chance to walk again and the opportunity for rehab after his life-changing spinal cord injury. Team Jeffrey needs your help!
