Roy Jewitt Road to Recovery

On behalf of Erika and the Jewitt Family, I kindly ask for your support during this tough and unexpected time.

Roy is a happy, healthy and compassionate man, who has done so much for the community of Young and beyond. He has raised many funds for MND and cancer council as well as volunteered his time and effort to local junior and senior sporting teams over the years and supported many families during their own difficult times. Roy is an extremely fit, kind and healthy man and his incredible efforts do not go unnoticed.

However, on the 24th of October, Thursday evening - after a normal day including a gym session, Roy was at home and suffered a severe stroke. Erika was home and rang the ambulance straight away and he was taken straight to Wagga. From Wagga they discovered he had indeed suffered a major stroke and also dangerous clots elsewhere so was transferred to Canberra for surgery. He is currently in ICU suffering right side paralysis and an inability to speak. The path ahead is unsure but he will need to learn to talk and walk when he’s well enough and a lengthy hospital stay ahead to do rehab. The future is unsure and he will have a long road ahead of him, and whether he will be able to return to his personal building business.

I kindly ask for your support during this difficult time on behalf of Erika and Roy’s 4 Boys. Any donation is heavily appreciated and will go far in Roy’s recovery and the journey ahead of him.

We are thinking of you Roy and wish you a safe recovery. The support and compassion you have showed other people, organisations and families are forever appreciate by many and it’s time for our beautiful community to give back and do the same for you ❤️
