I think the time has come to close this group down now. Jamie is living a full life with his girlfriend of 5 years. Thank you all for your support over the years.

Jamie has missed out so much. His mom is devoted to him.

It's been a long time since we've seen Jamie. He made a decision to distance himself from his family. We're not sure how or who made that decision but he is his own man now.
If you see Jamie out and about could you please wish him a merry Christmas from all his family

Decide to rise above the events of the other day and continue with this group.

Hi all. I am sorry to say that i am closing this page down. It was built to help people go through this horrific accident and be there for him all the way through. Helping him to get back to good health etc but to have a vicious gf put s**t into his head to make me feel bad for jamies past i will not put up with her accusations and her evil mouth anymore. She has caused so many problems and pushed jamie away from all his family. And all about her wanting control over his money. I thank everyone that has followed his post and if this page has helped but i cannot be part of this heartbreak anymore. 1 day jamie will wake up and see this vindictive person for who she is

Hi everyone

I know it's been a while since my last post but I really have no more news. Jamie is in a serious relationship and I have had to take a step back and let him get on with it even though I will always worry about him and his epilepsy and other affects from his accident. I am working full time in the hospital so happy keeping busy by helping others who need it. On a brain injury support post I would say if you are going through this with a loved one my advice would be please support your loved one, yes some brain injury victims sadly do not make it or end up needing full time care. Remember when the nurses and drs say to you how bad the injury is they have to give you the worse case scenario. If you ask them if they have seen miracles happen they will tell you. Jamie's accident was nearly 5 years next month and from what they said that Jamie would never walk, talk or live his life again... well you know how far he has come. He has been independent with his own home for 1 year now. I do not see him no where near as much as I would like but this is him letting him have his own life and being with g.f and living the life he should have.
He will always have epilepsy and will always need treatment for it and will never be Jamie who he was before but hand on heart I much prefer the Jamie he is now.

As a mum for all my sons I will remain there for them.

Thankyou for supporting me and being a shoulder to lean on. Good luck for your loved ones and if need advice I am here. Xx

Hi everyone..

Just a little update in jamie, his surgery was a success. He has both cathetors out and went to see the urologist yesterday and he was very pleased with the ooeration. Some of you may know or not know but everytime jamie had 1 of his fits the hospitals always put a cathetor in and in the end it all those cathetors destroyed jamies uretha (wee tube) so jamie ended up with a super p***c cathetor in his belly for several months. This meant jamie couldn't live a (normal) life and my main purpose has been to make jamie feel like a man. Anything less made jamie feel worthless. So after havinf the operation last October and yesterday's appointment we can finally say this was a success. Jamie is living independantly as he can and is in lovely relationship with a young lady he adores. There is 1 thing holding jamie back but it's nothing he can change and that's his epilepsy. He has accepted it and he can live a normalish life. We are followers of group on here for tbi victims and families and i read a blog on here last week. The lady who wrote it was just like I was. Making a blog to make others aware and to also update people who knows jamie but this was about her son. It was the exact story of a young guy that had his accident last year. It was 3 years this week when jamie started to walk. As her story was around the same time when her son was recovering. The only difference was it was a different man. Her family was given the worse prognosis as we was. It's so wrong. How many people have given up because their families have believed what the professionals have said. I have tried to get jamie to be a spoke person for the victims of a tbi. To let the proffesionals hear how it feels having locked in syndrome. I believe you do not really know how the person is going to be because they havent had the accident.. It must be so scary knowing they cannot communicate.

Anyway again i will say thankyou for following jamies blog. Thankyou for giving him support and continue to support him.

Hi everyone. Thought i would give you all a update on jamie. I do not remember if i mentioned before that jamie has cathetors and undergone a serious operation a few weeks ago as his ge****ls was severely damaged so he had 2 cathetors in. 1 a pe**le and 1 a super p***c. Today was jamies day. He had his both his cathetors removed and he has his life back again. No more cathetors no more bags no more infections no mote cramps. So proud of him. ###

Hi everyone. Again i am sorry i have not posted an update on Jamie's page but things have been hectic and jamie is getting on with his life. Who would have thought that 3 years ago jamie would prove the docs wrong. That jamie would be independent and living in his new flat but needed carers to keep a check on him because of his epilepsy.
Well 4 weeks ago jamie had a small operation but it failed. This operation was to help him go to the loo. He went in on Thursday again for a big operation which we have been told has been a success. Jamie is currently resting and waiting to come home.
Again i want to thankyou fir following his page and continuing your support for him. Just goes to show anything is possible when you dont give up hope. ###

Well today is the day I have been dreading. You know when you know an anniversary is coming up and something happens and you forget about the anniversary etc. Well lots have been happening in our lives and my head is preoccupied with my mother being in the hospital so I have been not thinking properly. Then booom I remember.

It's 3 years today when Jamie came off the motorbike and left us with a different Jamie. 3 years ago when we stood by Jamie's bed pleading Jamie to fight. I cannot tell you how awful it was and I never ever want to go through that again. If this is what you or a loved one is going through my advice is fight and keep up your energy. I found the prayer room helped me and I am not religious.i found everytime I went and preyed that Jamie did have a great day and started responding. The days I didn't go he had bad days. Very strange. 1 thing I don't miss from the old Jamie is Jamie's attitude and his lack of care for his family. He was a little sod. We are left with a loving Jamie. A Jamie who loves and cares for his family. The heart wrenching thing he is left with is forgetfulness, his epilepsy which makes him so vulnerable. And the fact that he has to go to college or work voluntary as no one will trust him to work normally because of a brain injury. Anyway I am thankful for having my son back so I am going to have to look forward and celebrate the anniversarry of his accident as a life changing wonderful son that fought tooth and nail to be here.
Happy anniversary Jamie. Love you loads and loads. Your my superman and will always be my superhero ###d

Hi everyone. I don't know if all of you know about little Bradley lowery and how he has fought for his life. But the beautiful little guy is struggling to hold on now. I know all of you helped me and my family cope with your support for jamie. So I am asking you for 1 thing. Can you all please share this and select it for your screensaver and select little blue love hearts just for a few days to show Bradley's family the love and support for him. Thankyou ###
