Two months after being discharged he was in an accident that left him permanently paralyzed. Jaylen spent 2 years in Vibra Hospital in Fargo until his passing. We were luckily enough to have him home for 21 days.
He enjoyed spending time with his friends and family, especially his nieces, GraceLynn & Blakely and nephews Randall & Issac who always made him smile. Jaylen also liked hunting, fishing, mudding, riding horse, video games, cooking, fixing bikes, basketball and drawing.
