After receiving chiropractic care on June 16, 2022, Georgia Southern University alumna Caitlin Jensen, age 28, became paralyzed. According to reports, Jensen’s arteries were cut during the chiropractic adjustments, which led to his paralysis.
A GoFundMe page was set up to raise money for medical expenses of Caitlin Jensen
A GoFundMe campaign established to collect money for Jensen’s medical costs has already surpassed its $61,000 fundraising target. Over 1200 donations have been sent to the page by the 28-year-well-wishers, old’s both known and unknown. Recent reports from the fundraiser state that Jensen can only communicate by moving her eyes. Although the rest of her body is entirely paralyzed, she can wiggle her toes.
According to the June 22 GoFundMe page Linda Foster created
Caitlin Jensen “graduated from Georgia Southern University this May with a degree in Chemistry and Biology,” according to the GoFundMe page Linda Foster set up on June 22. In Savannah, Georgia’s Memorial Hospital, the neurosurgical ICU, she is currently there. Jensen is described by Foster as follows. But the 28-year-old experienced a stroke, as was previously revealed. Caitlin Jensen had “lack of pulse for over 10 minutes after which she was resurrected,” according to the fundraiser’s page.
She has sustained a catastrophic brain injury and is in critical condition. Currently aware, Caitlin can respond to vocal orders by wiggling her left foot’s toes and blinking her eyes. However, because of the damage, the rest of her body is paralyzed. Caitin will likely need time to recover, and she will want financial assistance to get her through this dreadful experience.
According to a current update from the fundraiser’s coordinator Linda Foster, Jensen experienced significant pain on Wednesday, July 13 in her neck and the back of her brain. Foster added further information on Caring Bridge: “(Jensen) had a difficult day with lung mucus accumulation that interfered with her trach tube.” The report also indicated that Caitlin Jensen’s medical testing had been delayed because the facility’s personnel was overburdened with multiple trauma cases. Jensen should quickly recover with the right therapy and rehab.
