Vibes for Jarrett Martin

Recommended Posts

Some of you only know Jarrett from his dropzone.com posts as packing_jarrett. The kid definitely enjoys stirring the shit and getting the drama going.:D

But (at the risk of ruining his rep) you meet Jarrett in person and he's a pretty fucking cool kid - smart, ambitious, clever, and down to earth. He's lived pretty fast and done more at 18 than most people will do in all their lives; I just hope that he gets the chance to continue.

I've been working and jumping with Jarret for about 2 years. Great flyer, great person, great coworker at the DZ, I always enjoyed being around him, in the air and on the ground. His easy going nature and sense of humor often hid the fact that he's a very intelligent, capable young man, very well liked by all. This is a very tough time. I'm hoping for the best for him. Our hearts go out to him and his family. Brett Martin (dad), take good care of him over there, and bring him back home to us.

As the mama of an 18 year old boy, it breaks my heart to read this. Vibes to Mom and Dad and to Jarrett to use his spunky spirit to help him recovery quickly.

:(:(:(

This latest update breaks my heart,

thank you Monica Aikins for the Update.

on Jarrett ... Aorta surgery good, torn not severed. Keeping him under a medical coma to keep blood pressure down. High blood pressure will undo what surgery just fixed. Breathing/Heart Pumping on his own. Dr.'s concern about his pancreas, kidneys, colon. His spinal cord is severed at waist. Brett was able to talk to him very shortly today.

Our prayers, thoughts, and support go out to Jarrett and his family.

I had to hack my own account to sign on and post this :D I love you THAT much, buddy. That sig inspired by YOU years ago is still on here :D:D:D Too funny. You're such a smart ass, Jarrett, and you're being high maintenance. You know that's my job.

I just read the incident report :(

I've never met Jarret in person but we've chatted a few times over email and such, he would always resize pics for me to post here because i'm a dumbass when it comes to that stuff :D

Sending you major healing vibes my brother, get well :)
