Jeffrey’s Story

Site created on March 13, 2019

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. Jeffrey Kerrick suffered a fall on March 2, 2019, which left him paralyzed from the neck down.  Jeff underwent his first surgery on March 5th, and there will be more.  He is currently undergoing physical therapy, but his recovery will take months.  This site is designed to give the family one place to make entries on his progress, in hopes that Donna Sue can concentrate on helping Jeff through this process rather than answering phone calls, e-mails and text and Facebook messages.  We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement.  Thank you for visiting.
