Two weeks left in Atlanta
Jackson is in Atlanta, two weeks out from finishing Beyond Therapy at Shepherd Center. He wraps up October 22.<img class="right" src="https://jacksondrum.org/images/jackson-april-2026.jpg" alt="Jackson in Atlanta, 2026" /> In his words: "Have a great day everyone! I have 2 more weeks of therapy at Shepherd Center until October 22nd." Coming back here is a strange thing to be glad about. The last time he arrived at Shepherd he came by critical care flight and could not breathe on his own. This time he walked in to do the work. Beyond Therapy is the program for after the hospital part is over. It's about strength and independence, the things that decide whether he can go off to college in 2027 and manage on his own. That is what these weeks are for. Thank you to everyone still checking in on him. It matters more than you know.
