Jeremy’s Story

Site created on June 20, 2023

Welcome to Jeremy's CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.

On the morning of June 17th,  Jeremy set out on his motorcycle with his buddyand ride mate, Ryan, to meet up with a group for a charity ride down the Mississippi River.  It was a beautiful summer day of riding out on the open road for Jeremy and the group, but little did he know that this ride would forever change the course of his life. A sudden and unforeseen accident left him with severe and life-threatening injuries.

The accident took place just after 7:00pm Highway 10 at University Avenue in Coon Rapids on Saturday evening. His motorcycle unexpectedly went into an uncontrollable state throwing him from the bike. The impact was life-altering, leaving Jeremy with multiple life-threatening injuries and in very critical condition.

Amidst the chaos and uncertainty,  the unseen hero's on the scene and who witness the crashed and sprang into action, ensuring he received immediate medical attention. Emergency responders arrived swiftly, working tirelessly to stabilize him at the scene before transporting him to Mercy Hospital . The accident had taken a heavy toll, leaving him with skull fratures, multicompartmental brain bleeds, a collapsed lung, several  facial fractures, multiple rib and bone fractures, road rash covering his upper extremities, in which all was placing him in a critical condition, relying on a ventilator to breathe.

Jeremy's journey, though marked by countless challenges and unknowns, has been one of incredible strength and determination. Every day, he serves as a beacon of hope and resilience, as his loved ones and the medical team stand by his side, unwavering in their support and belief in his ability to overcome.

The road to recovery stretches before Jeremy, its twists and turns uncertain. Each step is met with caution, as his medical team guides him through the intricate process of healing. The path is long, and the destination remains unknown, but the unwavering love and support of family, friends, and the wider community continue to fuel his fighting spirit.

During this critical phase of his journey, we invite you to join us in uplifting Jeremy,  along with his family, friends and loved ones. Your prayers, well wishes, and words of encouragement serve as a source of strength, igniting a collective hope for his eventual awakening and the possibilities that lie ahead.

Thank you for being an unwavering source of support during this journey of healing and hope.

Celebrating Jeremy's Triumph - A Journey of Resilience

Happy Friday Everyone!

We wanted to give one final update on Jeremy’s road to recovery. It’s hard to believe that 12 weeks have passed since our world was turned upside down by Jeremy’s accident. Today, we stand together with grateful hearts, we celebrate a remarkable journey marked by resilience, determination, and your unbelievable  support.

Jeremy’s dedication and hard work have paid off remarkably. We are thrilled to share that he has successfully graduated from all therapies and received approval to return to work, starting Monday. In Jeremy’s own words, “I’m excited to get back to work and get back to life as ‘normal’.”

As we pause to reflect on Jeremy’s incredible journey to recovery, we are reminded of the profound miracle that life truly is. From the very moment the accident occurred, it has been evident that God’s hand has been upon Jeremy, guiding him through each step of this journey.

To you all, THANK you for your enduring love, prayers, and support, which have been the pillars of strength for Jeremy and his family during this challenging time.

As Jeremy embarks on this new chapter, please continue to keep him in your thoughts and prayers. Your unwavering support has played a pivotal role in his remarkable progress, and it remains a source of strength as he embraces the future.

Our hope is that moving forward we hold onto this profound reminder of life’s miracles and the boundless love that connects us all. Together, we remain strong, grateful, and deeply touched by the grace that surrounds us.
