Jacob Brewer

Three years ago in Siesta Key, Florida – during what was to be a short family vacation – my son, Jacob Brewer, was struck directly by a lightning bolt. They say your chance of being struck by lightning is one in a million, and even more rare to be struck directly – something most do not survive. Jacob is one in a million and he is also a fighter! His injuries were many and extreme – he fought for his life for weeks and months in the hospital! The doctor told me I was going to lose my son but Jacob miraculously survived, for which we thank God every day.

However, Jacob’s spine and nerves were damaged, leaving his legs paralyzed. Jacob fought hard to live and now he fights every day to walk again. He has traveled the world looking for doctors and experts to help him. Jacob is fighting to walk again because this is his dream – he gets up every day with a smile on his face and ready to take on his recovery. He is truly an inspiration to so many.

We thank God that he is still with us and are so very thankful for everyone’s love, prayers, and support. Please consider supporting Jacob so he can continue his fight to walk again. We would not have been able to do all we have been able to do to help Jacob without your gracious help! There are many good neuro-rehab programs, equipment, and medical treatments that are not covered by insurance. We know times are tough so if you can’t support him financially, we completely understand – sharing his story and prayers, of course, are much appreciated too! Family and friends of Jacob Brewer are raising money for the nonprofit Help Hope Live to fund travel expenses, medical equipment, co-pays, and deductibles.

Jacob has chosen to fundraise for Help Hope Live in part because Help Hope Live assures fiscal accountability of funds raised and tax deductibility for contributors. Contributors can be sure donations will be used to pay or reimburse medical and related expenses. Click on the Give button to make a tax-deductible donation to this fundraising campaign.
