JASON AND RUBY'S

Once we knew Jason was going to live through the trauma of the accident the Dr.'s all warned us that his rehabilitation would be slow going and there would be ups and downs.  I worried about how I would keep a blog up with nothing to report.  Well true to form Jason has solved that!  The news today is that his therapists worked with him on steps and he did pretty well. (He isn't on his own yet but that will undoubtedly come.)  He also was able to pedal for about 10 minutes - how amazing is that?!!

And more good news today - during his therapy he had a few bites of applesauce!  The plan is as long as things go well with his swallowing and digestion of some actual food they will continue to give him a bit more each day.  My guess is that applesauce might just be the best thing Jason ever tasted!
 
And what good timing since food is just what the first fund raiser will be about!  His incredible friends at Ruby Tuesdays have arranged for four different locations to participate in the Giveback program.  Here is the official information per Matt Kinney who started this ball rolling!

 
Ruby Tuesday fundraiser

As many of you know, Jason and Carolin worked at Ruby's when they met. With some help from the Ruby's staff, we have arranged a fundraiser through the Ruby Tuesday GiveBack program. Ruby's has offered to give back 20% of your total check to help assist Jason and Carolin through this tough time. I know it's short notice but I just got final confirmation today. The following restaurants will be participating on the following days all day.

There are a few rules, we can't combine this offer with any other coupons and you must bring a flyer for the corresponding store with you. Also, Ruby's has asked that we not hand out flyers in the restaurant or in the parking lots. With that said, print up a few, bring them to work, ask some friends, ask people at your church, lets get as many people as we can to participate..

 
 
To get the fliers just go to Jason Shepard Fan Club facebook page and click the Files tab near the top of the page and each restaurants individual flyer will come up for you to print out.  If you aren't on FB please feel free to email me at amycrops2@aol.com and I will send you one to download.
 
Here's everyone's first chance to unite together in our common goal! (And you get a great meal in return!)
