Hi Jazz - Thank you so much for sharing your story and being so vulnerable! Not quite sure how I landed here today, but I think it was meant to be... I too was hit by a car while on a bicycle in 2017. I fractured a vertebrae, broke my foot in 2 places, had several lacerations/road rashes and a meniscus tear. Spent aprox. 10 days in the hospital and had spinal fusion surgery. I was wearing a helmet and it cracked in half, but honestly, if it wasn't for the helmet I wouldn't be here today. The guy who hit me was on his cel phone. I can completely relate to your learnings, particularly to what your T-Shirt said: Be Kind to One Another. Create a positive mark in the world and a virtuous cycle of kindess. Also, be grateful. Life is too fragile and be grateful for all of the experiences and people (family, friends, co-workers, teammates or strangers) we influence or meet everyday. Loved listening to your story and happy I was able to reconnect with that moment in time and appreciate all the good that I has brought me. Thank you, Alex
Oh my gosh my heart exploded learning about you. I am so sorry about your accident, wow, you are so lucky that you were wearing a helmet and although you had a very difficult recovery - are in a great headspace now. I am grateful to connect with you and for you sharing your story with me. I wish we could all be more kind to each other. Sometimes I feel like I live on a different planet than others as my mindset and perspective has changed immensely after the accident. Glad to connect, you made my day with this comment. Sending you much love.
you are incredible. thank you for sharing this - i can't even imagine how hard it must be to go through something so traumatic, but i'm SO grateful you're alright!! love you girl
Thank you so much for listening to my story and this kind message Jordan!! I appreciate you, and everything is temporary - all pain, and discomfort. So that really helped me get through it!!
Dear Jazz...I am a new subscriber as of this morning. This is the second video I have watched (the first one was with your brother and the two burger places)... that was great! Your story is an amazing one of survival and perseverance. All honor and praise to our Great Physician, The Lord Jesus Christ. Thanks for sharing your inspirational story. God bless you and much success to you always.
God loves you… God is always talking to us! You heard His Spirit talking to you… trying to protect you… ☺️ He doesn’t want bad things to happen to us even though we are in the broken, fallen road. He loves YOU!!! It’s so amazing you are surrounded by so much love from your family as well!!! Thank you for being honest and transparent about your experience and emotions! Christ will redeem this world. God is always with you. Be encouraged!!! Check out the Chosen series… I pray watching it will encourage you even now that you are mostly recovered. God bless you! Praying for your continued healing even though it’s 2 years later… thanks for all you do for others! Bless you!
You are so strong for sharing ! God has a plan for your life and he brought you through! Sending you lots of love ❤️

SubhanAllah that's so scary so glad you came out alive. Alhamdulillah
I always ride on the sidewalk, even though it's supposedly against the law.
