On December 18, 2022, Jontae’s entire life changed completely. She was in a horrible car accident where she sustained a high level spinal cord injury (SCI), leaving her paralyzed from the neck down.
Statistically, only 1.2% of those that sustain this type of injury actually survive.
After numerous hospital stays and a ton of prayer, Jontae is now living at home with her family where she is surrounded by love, which allows her to remain engaged and motivated to live the best quality of life as possible.
Jontae has made many new connections within the SCI community and she has goals she is determined to accomplish. One of which is to finish her BA in Communications from Saint Elizabeth University in Morristown, New Jersey.
Everyday there is more to learn about spinal cord injuries, and it is clear that the road to recovery will be a long one. Jontae will be victorious through all of this with her faith in God, and the continued love and support from her family and friends.
Family and friends of Jontae Patton are raising money for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to fund uninsured medical expenses associated with Catastrophic Injury in honor of Jontae.
