Oi Oi Oi Jamie! I think you'll be getting lots more followers now that we know about your amazing endeavor.<br /><br />I'm the mom of a 22 yr old son with multiple "disabilities", as well as uniquely wonderful abilities! <br /><br />Reading your story and watching the vdeo is inspiring and emotional and honest, and so authentic about adapting to what life brings and finding the ABILITY to move our "moldy carcasses" on :)<br /><br />You and Jessica are both inspirations, for quite different reasons... but the reason hardly matters. Both of you will have a new sense of ability and strength from your experiences, and it will be YOURS! <br /><br />I wish you all the best, and a safe journey. <br /><br />Heart and hugs to you,<br />Susan in OregonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006725623171132271.post-63853808802518282010-04-08T19:47:11.447-07:002010-04-08T19:47:11.447-07:00Hello Jamie,

Found out about you by that little trooper Jessica who is showing the world that sailing is for everyone and with you, what an amazing picture we are setting. <br /><br />Three very difference people doing three different sails yet all just loving the sailing. I would keep a track of where you are and hopefully as I come around we can cross each others paths out in the deep blue.<br /><br />Good luck to you mate and may the wind blow you the right way.SOS Ocean Racinghttp://www.sosoceanracing.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006725623171132271.post-36226402623088574982010-04-08T16:17:16.083-07:002010-04-08T16:17:16.083-07:00Hi Jamie

I haven't been able to fully review all of your website yet but will do so asap. <br /><br />I'm thrilled she mentioned your voyage! I have followed her since before she left port on her incredible journey. (Isn't she doing GREAT?!) What an inspiration you are! My husband has been wheelchair bound for almost 20 years and has many other challenges as well, but I am going to bring him to the computer to view your website and will read to him about your voyage..........You will be an encouragement to him and I know he will join me in cheering you on! <br /><br />I am thrilled to 'meet you' and will be following you daily!!!<br /><br />WAY TO GO JAIME!<br />Blessings,<br />Janell in Oklahoma, USAJanell in Oklahoma,USAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11954628086457829425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006725623171132271.post-68764048734007373392010-04-08T11:20:39.549-07:002010-04-08T11:20:39.549-07:00Hi Jamie
