A massive thank you to everyone who has supported JADE At 11.30am on the 19th of April 2022 our lives changed forever. Our gentle Jade had a serious car accident between visiting clients at work after becoming an OT and completing Uni only 5 months before. Her spine, ankle and pelvis were fracture, but the huge damage has hitting her head resulting in a brain injury. Over the past 18 months Jade has worked hard EVERY day and can now Jade is move somewhat on her own, but has not yet regained control of her limbs. When she came out of her coma after 4 months and started to talk we were so excited. She can now talk and hold great conversations. Jade is now home after a difficult journey through the hospital system. This has been incredibly hard, for not only Jade but also for everyone that loves her. Jades rehabilitation journey will be long and take many years in fact and although we all need her home it’s likely she will need care and rehab beyond our capabilities. She has sustained a significant traumatic brain injury. We now know that Jade is now likely to be very different to the Jadey we knew prior to her accident. We give her your love and messages every day. With your strength behind her we know she will continue to improve…though what the future looks like is still unclear. Please HELP us make the best future for Jade.

Our Video for Jade Due to COVID restrictions at the Caulfield Hospital at the moment, Jade can only be visited by her immediate family. This is why the family has decided to remotely bring Jade’s friends and family to her in a photo and video montage. You are invited to share any photos or videos or messages you would like to send to Jade, and we will compile these for Jade to enjoy. We ask that you speak positively and ensure your contributions are optimistic and uplifting. Photo instructions: All photos of yourself and Jade are very welcome. Upload your photos to the Google Folder* that this document is in. Video Instructions: If you feel you would like to contribute to our video montage for Jade, please complete the following: Create a video you would like Jade to receive (this might be telling a story, speaking of memories, wishing her well, telling jokes, playing a musical instrument, singing a song, anything!). Keep in mind the family will be viewing these videos during the compiling process and when assisting Jade in watching. Film your video in LANDSCAPE orientation (sideways like a movie or YouTube video). Upload your video to the Google Folder* that this document is in. The link to the Google Drive is below: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/15XT12_F8c1wGyhGrC-4o-kOQtFSG0Xnc *We also ask please DO NOT move or delete the files of others. The Google Folder will be monitored and files removed by the family as they are added to the montage. Thank you. The progress we have seen in Jade is very encouraging. We appreciate the immense support we all have received and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We know recovery will be slow, so we appreciate your contribution to this project, as Jade is going to need your ongoing love more than ever. Thank you and stay safe, The McAlear Family https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/15XT12_F8c1wGyhGrC-4o-kOQtFSG0Xnc

Hello! I just saw the abc piece. Loved your line about not being a child! It reminded me of a friend from school who had the same frustration. Thanks so much for sharing your journey!
