Jack Jablonski article

I recently read the Jack Jablonski Article in Sports Illustrated by Cades mom, Karen. A couple months ago, Jabs got checked behind in a hockey game. Before anyone knew it, he was lying on the ice, motionless. He is now partially paralyzed, just from one check in hockey. I have thought about his accident a lot lately, but I have never thought about it with a point of view of a hockey mom. The article by Karen truly shows what the hockey parents have to go through with the risk of their child being severely hurt at any time. The article talked a lot Karens experience as a mom of two hockey players, and then how she personally knows Jabs. It was really eye opening hearing about how peers of Jabs feel, and parents in the same boat as his parents. Not only did Karen talk about Jabs, but she talked about other High School hockey players in Minnesota. It was really weird reading and hearing about people who I know, and having them be known around the country now because of this article. This just shows that when a community comes together, we can make anything happen.
