A Northwest Oklahoma City woman who is the sole caregiver of adopted twin boys with very special needs, is praying for a special Christmas. 

Jeri Jones Hill is a 1982 Moore High School graduate.  She adopted Sam Weston and Jackson Hill shortly after they were born in 2002.  Both boys are quadriplegic and suffer from an acute form of cerebral palsy, which has caused other dramatic health problems for both boys over the last 14 years.  

Hill operates a small business out of her home. However, her boys have outgrown their wheelchairs, and she says they need a newer larger van to get them to doctors’ and physical therapy appointments. 

A friend started a GoFundMe.com page for Jeri and the boys a few weeks ago.  It’s already raised $18,000.

“They’re worth fighting for,” said Jeri with tears in her eyes.  “You know they’re brilliant little boys. Cognitively they’re awesome.”

“It’s just crazy, it’s chaos, it’s a beautiful mess,” she continued.
