💙When someone in our community hurts, we all hurt. Please join us in sending all the healing energy and prayers to our dear Jason Castillo and his family. You got this, Jason!
Jason Castillo went into the attic looking for one last piece of Halloween candy.
Now his family doesn’t know if he’ll ever be able to walk again 💔
Jason has Down syndrome and is a beloved Special Olympics athlete who loves to dance, play sports and make people laugh.
While searching for candy, the drywall beneath him gave way, and he fell two stories, suffering serious injuries to his legs and spine.
Doctors are still unsure whether Jason will walk again, and his family is devastated.
But even while he was hurting, Jason said, “Thank you, Jesus.”
His family says that’s just the kind of person he is.
Jason is a wonderful son, friend and member of his church who has brought so much happiness to the people who love him.
Now his family is hoping people will help him through a very difficult recovery.
They’re facing medical bills, rehabilitation and the possibility of making changes to their home to accommodate his injuries.
And they’re hoping more than anything that Jason will get to do the things he loves again.
Especially getting back on the field with his Special Olympics teammates.
Please keep Jason and his family close to your heart. If you’re able to help with his recovery, it would mean so much.
Here’s hoping Jason gets to dance again soon.
He’s got a lot of people cheering him on ❤️🩹
