Jon Keimach
My name is Jon Keimach and I was injured on August 1, of 2001, after I crashed my dirtbike into a tree in Lake Arrowhead. I was 14 years old at the time and I sustained a C5/C6 spinal cord injury.
Be Perfect has provided me financial assistance towards physical therapy and a new wheelchair. This has helped me re-gain an independent and active lifestyle by giving me access to this type of therapy and giving me more independence with a custom wheelchair that I can push.
Be Perfect has re-instilled hope back into my life again by helping me with funding to go to The Perfect Step to get outpatient therapy. This has put my body into much better condition. For years I was getting tighter and more spastic and this type of therapy is the most relief I can get other than medication.
The Perfect Step helped me gain confidence and independence by helping me push towards and obtain my goals. Nowhere else can I get the best-trained Specialists, top of the line equipment, and a great community of support.
Some goals I have attained that I am proud of are losing about 25 lbs and getting strong enough to push my new manual wheelchair everyday and put away my power wheelchair. Every session I leave with immediate relief from tone/spasms.
Some goals that I would like to attain are less tone/spasms, straightening my spine curvature/hunch, and improve on my abilities/strength.
Thank you very much for your help it really means a lot to me!
