Tell Me I Can’t….
I’ll Show You I Can…..
On August 15, 2015, the Jacobson family was in a horrendous vehicle accident in Spanish Fork Canyon at the junction of Hwy 89 and Hwy 6. Two lives were lost and two were critically injured. One being life-flighted and the other one transported by ambulance to Utah Valley Hospital in Provo, Utah.
After an intense, critical, and miraculous brain surgery, Landon was bound and determined to heal quicker than he was told he could. After being told he might not walk again and possibly be bed- ridden. He became a little bit impatient; he focused on doing what physically needed to be accomplished so he wasn’t wheelchair bound and so the state would deem him capable of being the legal guardian of his three kids that were at the ages of 17,14, & 11.
Landon’s courage, determination, and sheer will to never give up is quite a real-life miracle and is appropriately re-told in this book.
