Debi and Cindi, I just wanted to let you know that the adult bracelets are great, but most women, and even my 16 yr old boy and my husband, like the youth bands better. They fit a little more snug, and don't fall off when you let your arm down.
Just trying to help out, I'm hoping to get to Loretta's this year, all of us would like to get bracelets to support Jeremiah. I also would like to make a graphic kit donation for the Auction, let me know what I need to do.
Thanks!
Angela
Jeremiah Jones Update: 8/3/06
JJ has been in great spirits, and he is determined as ever to overcome his paralysis one way or another, and on a very positive note, JJ has responded to some of the therapy, and he was able to sense the pressure of a cold cup and pin applied to areas below his waist. He still doesn’t have any feeling or movement, but he could sense the pressure, which is one very small but promising step to recovery.
Now for the bad new, JJ received a MRI and a CAT scan today, and it revealed that several of the pins inserted into his vertebrate were actually affecting his spinal area, so he went back into surgery tonight to have the pins relocated. If all goes well, JJ is expecting to be released from the Hospital sometime between Sunday and Tuesday, and he will be transported, as of now, to a rehabilitation facility in Atlanta, GA where he will stay for an extended period of time.
The trip from New York to Georgia will require the use of a medical airplane ride, which will be a costly trip and exceed what will be covered under his insurance policy, so in the first phase of raising money for JJ, we are making available for purchase online, blue Jeremiah Jones #2 bracelets, which can be purchased for $5.00 Each along with a Flat Rate $5.00 shipping charge for any quantity of bracelets ordered. Also, for those just looking to make a standard donation, a field is available for this as well through paypal. For those without paypal accounts, you can also mail in your orders or donations to Debi Bartosek, and the order information is available online at Jeremiah Jones Bracelet & Donation Link .
Bracelets are already on order, but they haven’t arrived yet and more will be ordered, so please allow up to 4 weeks to receive your bracelet via mail. Bracelets will also be available at the remaining ATVA MX Nationals and WPSA events. Also, several regional race promoters have also requested bracelet shipments, which will only help expand the reach for raising funds for Jeremiah Jones.
Here is the link to place your order or make a donation:

The Jones Family thanks everyone for the incredible outreach they have received from people from around the global, and I personally thank everyone for posting all their great words of encouragement for Jeremiah and his family.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Jeremiah Jones but I did get the chance to photograph him at the 2006 ATVA National Round #1 at Glen Helen Raceway in San Bernardino, CA.
I wanted to share these photos I had taken of JJ with the racing community. The news was overwhelming when I heard, being a photographer of the sport for a few years now, I see racing thru a completely different minds eye than the spectators and riders and wanted to share what I saw that day.
Thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery for the friends and families of Jeremiah Jones and to all those friends and families that have gotten injured in our sport.

now's the time for us as a community to come together and show JJ what ATVing is all about. if you can, donate or buy a bracelet so he'll have help paying for his trip and surgeries, and keep him in your prayers and thoughts. stay strong man, you'll be back
Do you all know what is so great - we all come from different parts of the world - but when something like this happens - the worlds quad community stick together like glue!! It's awesome to see - I also race (I'm a woman in South AFrica) but thank God every race that he kept his hand over me cause accidents can happen so quickly! I was looking at the race on ESPN on Tuesday night but we are a bit behind with the races where the young guy on the 450 Honda won (Willer or something is his surname) won and it was awesome racing to watch between him, JJ and Doug Gus. Natalie was not racing - but those 3 had me on the edge of my seat. It's guys like this that inspires me to try and be better at my sport!!! (I ride a Suzuki 400 - LOVE MY QUAD) Anyway, Please keep us updated about JJ's recovery and send him best wishes from South Africa;)
JJones I will never forget Doug & your voices in sinc, when I said Good Luck Boys, and you both answered "Thanks" in harmony. We were at the bottom of the hill facing the Gravity Cavity. I heard the announcer say there was a tangle of about 9 Quads but, did not realize anything . We drove home happy 3hrs to our PA home slept, and then back to our NJ home ready for work. My son Emanuel 6 hugged me, and started to cry his sister followed with tears not knowing why her big brother cried, when I told him the news the following day . I had found out on LTR -HQ . Today at dinner we said grace and he quickly said "Oh dad and lets pray for Jeramia Jones" . I love my wife for getting me a second Quad for our 9yr anniversary, a Ltr-450 yellow its faster than white. Do me a favor JJ. Pray as hard as we all are. and You will pull thru.
God Bless The Power of Good!;)
My wife & son.
me!
Best Wishes!
Get Well Soon.
