Rider down needs our help!!

Edited Date/Time 2/14/2015 2:54pm
Hello all, sorry my first post is this but I had to post for a friend. I have been on this forum lurking for several years, but this is not about me its about my old friend Brandon Jones. Brandon was in a real bad moto accident on January 27th and suffered some serious injuries. I copied and pasted this from his go fund me account. I have known him for close to 20 years now, I used to work at a shop who provided rider support for Brandon while he chased his dream, He has traveled all over the country chasing his dream with his wife Rebecca. Please see what you all can do to help out Brandon, thank you and god bless.

He was involved in a dirt bike accident which left him with 12 fractured ribs, punctured lung, broken collar bone, 3 upper spine fractures , 2 lower spinal breaks t10 and t11 which caused him to be paralyzed from the waist down doctors say it is unknown if he will walk again.

Everyone that knows Brandon knows he is a very strong and determined person, he is not the type of person to give up he has said "I will walk again"

Brandon is always willing to help those in need. Brandon is a kind person, loving son and husband, a great friend. Now is the time when he and his family need everyone's encouraging words, support and donations. After 2 surgeries so far the future is still unknown after his release from the hospital he will be placed a spinal cord rehab center in San Jose Ca.

The financial aspects of this injury is the last thing he needs to worry about he needs to focus on his recovery. All the money raised will go to his ever growing medical , rehab and whatever Brandon needs to recover to the best of his ability .....

Any support will be greatly appreciated
Thank you!!!

Great guy. Just a few months ago he made us a brand new rod iron front gate for our track as a thank you for all the years of support we had given him. We were devastated when we heard the news

Aaron, best wishes to your friend Brandon. Not sure how much it will do, but We through a plea for help and link to the Go Fund Me on MotoXAddicts' Facebook account. We're not huge, but we have a 150,000 Addicts on the page. Hope it helps and thoughts and prayers are with him. That's one of those deals, while I've imagined it happening , I still really can't even begin to imagine how I'd deal with it. Guys like OCScottie and others on this site that have dealt with that tragedy and come through it okay are bigger men than I.

i really hope your friend gets better... but why the fuck don't people who ride have private health insurance???? is it affordable in the US?

The insurance in the USA is mostly a joke. Our health insurance premiums are skyrocketing and they cover less and less. I personally know a few riders who have insurance but with huge crashes and several surgeries bills are huge. I continue to pray for Brandon and all the other riders who are struggling to get through these rough times. I want to thank all of you for the prayers and any donations you can offer. God bless!!!!

prayers for him...
private health insurance is very cheap in Australia and we also have a free basic health care... i broke both my wrists and never paid a cent and because my bike was licensed the state also payed me $1000 a week while i was off work for 3 months...
