Hey Everyone ...

I will have an update soon on justinweeks381.com

but I wanted to tell you that justin is able to move his left knee and able to lift it up near his pelvic area. Still no sign on the right side for movement, but when he is asked to move it we can feel the muscles inside working, just no significant movement on the right side.

In the meantime, Vurbmoto put together and AWESOME video of Justin

Please check it out, Thank you VURB! .... Thank you everyone!

I love hearing this stuff. I hope and pray that the progress continues. Justin must be a strong kid.
Maria .my son is a cancer surviver and if you ask him today what was the most important thing about times like this he will tell you that its positive thinking. My son never once gave up or got down on himself even when the doctors were saying that things were real bad.

Tell Justin to stay strong and be positive! I have a good feeling that Justin will ride again someday .

Hey guys the site is

justinweeks381.com

I hope tonight the update will be posted, I write them but am not the same person posting them on the web. I just got an idea of what Justin will have to pay for michigan alone and ... I am going to think of new fundraising idea's to help justin through this ... Stay posted for new ways to help Justin through this time. Also on that note, if you have any idea's on fundraising, motocross related or not I would love to hear them!! .... I love this industry and the community ... but Im thinking I will have to go WAY outside the box to help them out, any idea's would be great! ... thanks everyone! and I will continue to keep you posted on his recovery!

Maria, you have done an excellent job. Justin is very fortunate to have you on his side. I still pray WFO for Justin and several others I know that are going through recovery/therapy ect. Very glad to hear the great news. Many thanks for your continued updates.

this is incredible... I only had movement on my left side for weeks but in therapy I was always asked to flex something and the therapist said she could "feel it... it was on its way..." I honestly thought she was lying to make me feel better about only being able to move one leg but she ended up being right.... I can ride a bicycle over 15 miles at 11-12 mph now... keep smiling and looking up, for real, he has a lot he can do with or without dirt bikes, life is a blessing.

and if Justin gets to see these posts it was nice meeting you at LL this year, and call Sunny, he has been really torn up over you and with his knee surgery. you have an even greater opportunity now to affect people positively with your recovery, stay strong and much love.

Great news! And lets shoot for being able to live a normal life again first, before talking about even riding a bike again.

This is all great news. Tell Justin that at this rate he is going to cost me money. ,,,,

My son said one day that it would be cool to ride with him one day when he gets better so I said I will make a deal with you.
I said,,, When he gets better I will take to whatever track he is riding at so you can moto with him. I better start saving for a road trip. LOL

Justin would love to do that, in all honesty that brings tears to my eyes because I know a lot of kids look up to him. No joke, my email is vandem19@ferris.edu and We would love to stay in contact with you.

Thank you so much for your support and I hope that someday your son is able to meet and hang out with Justin, he is extremely approachable so please don't hesitate to talk to him.

Wow ... that is so awesome, good luck with all of you're racing and stay safe.
