Jack and Janice Buckelew have turned their garage into an inventory of life-saving medical supplies for their son.
In October 2015, their son Jonathan became dizzy and disoriented during a chiropractic visit. He was eventually rushed by EMS to North Fulton Hospital Emergency Room.
According to a Fulton County state court jury verdict, two doctors failed to properly diagnose Jonathan was having a stroke, one that went untreated for hours.
As a result, Jonathan, now 34, has lived in a chair, immobile, for a decade. He has Locked-in Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder where a person is conscious and aware but unable to move or speak due to complete paralysis of nearly all voluntary muscles, except the eyes.
