Day 21 - Tuesday November 18

Today: Hey guys, this is Jalin. I feel so much better than I have yet. We went and ate lunch in the cafeteria with Bro. Danny & Denise. I feel great! Maybe tomorrow we can go home. I hate being in the bed. I love getting to go out of the room and I feel like god has healed me so much. I ate chicken and brocolli pasta and drank a whole code red mountain dew and some of my coke which was about, I would say 8 oz. I feel so good and I think we are gonna go ride around more and see Jessie(My trauma Nurse). I am so excited about going home. The lady we are talking to says we can go home tomorrow and I am excited about this. I love Jesus so much! He has blessed our family more than anyone can know. I'm hoping my voice comes back a little better, and I am just excited! about everything. I will write more later. I want to thank all of you for loving me and everything you have done for me, Daddy, Mama, Jordan, Jessica, Granny & Dino. I want to thank God for saving my life.

I love you
Jalin

  1. Oh Jalin,

    It is so good to "hear" from you!!!! I write this with tears of joy. You sound so good. I am so very happy that you are up and about. I want to say so much but the words would be so very inadequate. We love you and can't wait to see you.

  8. PRAISE GOD!
    Jalin it is so good to hear straight from you. I have enjoyed reading what your mom and dad have wrote, but to hear your very words truly blesses my heart, (as tears roll down my face.)I praise God constantly for the healing of your body and I pray He will continue to bless you.
    I have missed you so much and I can't wait to see you back in church and sharing what God has done for you.
    You are a miracle, Jalin don't ever forget that and you have taught us all to never take for granted what we have.
    I know the next few months will take a physical toll on you mind and body, but you have overcome so much in the last few weeks, you are the strongest person I know and you have a loving, caring family and so many friends that will help you get back to 100%, nothing less. Remember our Teens On A Mission's scripture: TWO ARE BETTER THAN ONE, FOR IF ONE FALLS DOWN THE OTHER CAN PICK HIM/HER UP. (Eccl. 4:9-10) Well Jalin, you have so many people that want to pick you up. I am here for you and will do anything I can for you, you name it!
    HURRY HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    CAN'T I GET AN AMEN?
    With All My Love, Tina

She was so excited!! God Bless You!!Love, Sandra Harris

  22. GREAT GREAT NEWS!!! Angels are smiling everywhere, and so are several thousand believers from different cities and states and probably different countries. I love that the word says, "Trust in me fully and you will not be shaken by adversity. When your confidence is in me, you share my life, my joy, my strength. Then nothing in this world can steal your joy."
    We love you Jalin, and we love your family. Looking foward to cooking you something special. God Bless you. Cindy and Denis Sprewell

This is such wonderful news and I just wanted to tell you I love you again.

  30. Jalin,
    Oh my how good God is like others I couldn't help but cry when I read the blog was from you. What a blessing God has been through you, there should not be a doubt in anyones mind if we pray and trust in him things will happen. If he can say live and we live and die and we die he surely has the power to heal our bodies he did create them. And thank God he saw fit to heal yours. We would love to visit you when you get home and get settled in, I know there will be people everywhere visiting so we will wait a minute. lol We love you all and are so thankful God has worked this miracle in your life. Hope to see you soon.
    Love the Norton's

  36. Hey sweetie!
    It's so good to hear from YOU! I have been praying for you! God truly performed a great miracle in you and you have a wonderful testimony to share with others. When your Mom and Dad give in and let you sing with me, then you can share away!!! LOL Just Kidding Bro. Darrell!
    Brad has been wanting to come and see you, but I told him that we would come when you got better. Just know that we all love you and your family very much and we will be praying for a speedy recovery.......

  37. Jalin,
    I get on the computer to see how you are doing everyday and when I got on today and saw that it was from you, I broke down in tears! It is truly amazing what our God can do! I can not begin to tell you how happy I am that you are doing so good! Let Mrs. Lori know that Alex Preston misses her so much at school. He tells me at least twice a week that he will be glad when Mrs. Jones and Jalin gets back at school, its not the same without them. I will continue to pray for you and your family! When your company settles down when you get home I would like to bring Alex to see you and your mom. I want you to know he would not go trick or treating cause he wanted to go to your church and be there for you. Your experience has changed alot of people! Continue getting stronger and if we can do anything for you and your family just let us know.

    We love you,
    Brandon and Stacey Little

  38. Jalin, I know that you do not know me. You go to the same school as my neice Hannah Norton and I think you know my nephew Dustin Sims---anyway when I heard of what happened to you my heart just broke. For some reason your situation struck a nerve in me. From time to time I will hear of bad things happening to kids and It breaks my heart and I have genuine concern for them but when I heard of your wreck it was different. It was like I knew your family. However, not ever having the pleasure of meeting you or your family I began to pray for you and your family. I checked the blog everyday just waiting for news on you. Reading some of the blogs just tore my heart out and I would sit and cry as I read them. You are my sister in Christ and I am so Thankful for what God has done for you and your recovery. I just wanted to let you know how your situation has touched me. You are a Truely Blessed young woman as well as your family. I know that you all are so Thankful, I can hear it in the words I read. God Bless you as you get to go home. Rest up and I pray God continues to heal your body. Blssings to you and your family...Much in Prayer-Your Sister in Christ---Sunshine Smith, Bremen Ga

We give God all the glory for your healing!!
