Jennie Pam's Recovery Fund to Walk

My name is Tom Leidigh and I am the CEO and founder of Infinity. Infinity is an outsourcing, sales and retention partner for many of the best-known brands in the US and global markets. Our Director of Operations and his family have been fighting a battle to support their second child, Jennie Pam. Infinity is a very socially responsible company that is continuously looking to help support the people that make it great. I have been following Jennie Pam's story for five years and am compelled to try and help this family with the unimaginable financial commitment to Jennie Pam's care.

Jennie Pam is a 10-year-old little girl. She was born with quadriplegic cerebral palsy, microcephaly, hydrocephalous, epilepsy, globally delayed, prematurity of Lungs, and is fed through a Gastronomy tube. She was born premature and suffered a stroke just 8 hours after she was born.

At the age of 5, after all other options had been exhausted, the decision was made to perform a functional hemispherectomy. This left the entire right side of her body permanently impacted. Since then, she has had three more neurosurgeries and multiple hospitalizations.

Most recently, Jennie completed eight weeks of serial casting in the hopes of correcting the deformity in her feet caused by her cerebral palsy. After completing this process, Jennis was admitted on the other side of the state for intensive physical and occupational therapy at Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital in Grand Rapids Michigan. The hope is that Jennie's progress will lead to the ability for her to walk in a walker and gain needed independence after not weight bearing for the previous five years.

Jennie Pam is an outgoing, funny, kind and happy child. She loves her brother and sister, JJ and Tiffany-Belle, who are by her side during every step of this adventure. She dreams of growing up, walking and starting a family of her own.

With this therapy has come the understanding that there will be some financial stress that comes along with it. These are some of the items the funds will be used to cover:

Update 6/12/23

Jennie Pam is entering her fourth week here at Mary Free Bed. She is being pushed daily to complete 4-5 hours of intense PT and OT. Jennie has come a long way but is worn out by the end of every day. The amazing part about her time here is the number of evaluations and meetings we have been able to have with specialists that would take months at home. Since arriving, Jennie has been measured for a proper stander, had her wheelchair evaluated, gone through xrays and testing and received an updated evaluation every Tuesday.

While this has been a blessing for Jennie and her development, this has certainly proved to have its challenges. Being away from home since May, trying to keep Joseph Jr and Tiffany Belle active and happy inside of a hospital, the kids not seeing their Dad until the weekends and the constant driving and stress around this.

I will do my best to continue to provide updates. Thank you to everyone that has taken the time to share and donate. It means the world to our family.
