Jessie Rees is a past swimmer of mine from the Nadadores who has recently been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. Jessie, at 12 years old, has decided to start radiation/chemo treatment at Children’s Hospital Orange County today, March 21st. Jessie and her family are facing this news with a courageous and positive
attitude, and unbelievably, have decided to spread JOY during this frustrating and difficult time. Starting in May you can pass joy to people in need in your area through JoyJars(tm). Jessie and her family will be selling them for $20.00 and giving the money to CHOC and cancer research. “Like” her facebook page to follow her story and help spread joy. Her goal is to reach 10,000 fans. Please visit her site at JessicaJoyRees.com.

| Jessie's motto: Never Ever Give Up |
Jessie was a hard working, super-comitted, loyal and spirited swimmer during her time in my 10 & Under Blue and Gold groups...she continues to demonstrate these character qualities in her current groups. I have witnessed her grow as a person, accomplish her goals, face her fears (open water practices), and become inspired by the sport of swimming and the coaches and friends who worked with her. Now, I am inspired by her. She is helping me grow as a person. She is pushing me to accomplish my goals. She is teaching me what true courage is and that I must overcome my fears by facing them head on. In honor of Jessie and her cause...I will be the best coach I can be. I will cherish every moment with my family. I will NEVER EVER GIVE UP! I encourage all of you who read this to do the same and
live your dash.
Great Post Coach Bryan... Jessie and her family have inspired me as well.
ReplyDeleteFantastic post. We are behind Jessie and will keep peaying for her and her family until God restores her 100%.

You are one of the people who make these kids so strong Coach Bryan! NEGU! They have been taught well! I'm guessing Jessie is tackling this just like she does workouts and races...from long and strong to blast...she's got this! What a girl, huh? ~Shelley B.
ReplyDeleteGreat post coach! We also learned to be strong and appreciate every minute because of Jessie. She's a true inspiration. A golden child. I pray every day for her recovery. Go Jessie!!!! You can do this. NEGU.
ReplyDeleteJessie was so amazing, beautiful, strong and brave. I seen her with more fight energy than most adults. My company had the chance to make her very happy by creating her JoyJars animated commercial. I remember how she thought it was so cool to be made into a cartoon and to have an actual animated commercial about her JoyJars. She will be greatly missed until the next time we see her again one sweet day. Please support JoyJars at www.JoyJars.org. You can also see her commercial that we created for her on the front page. You can also see it on our youtube channel. http://youtu.be/3pVIpBkVnkY
