Put your hand on my heart, put your faith in me.

Hey everyone. Since a lot of you have been reading some of my tweets & facebook statuses I wanted to fill you in on what’s going on along with some other stuff so here’s the situation….

A few years ago, I had two surgeries performed on my left foot due to an injury I was born with. With the first surgery, my doctor had placed metal plates and screws in my foot to try to correct the issue. Everything was fine for a little while then the screws and plates started to irritate my foot again even more, making it tough to even walk. I then got another surgery performed removing all the hardware. For a while after THAT surgery I was fine…..up until a few weeks ago. A few weeks ago I started getting more and more uncomfortable sharp pain making it almost impossible to walk without it being unbearable. Recently I started going back to the doctor who did the prior surgeries and he told me that in order to correct the situation at hand for good I will need one more surgery. This surgery is a little bit more in depth considering what he has to do. He has to fuse 3 separate sets of my bones together in order to stop some if not most of movement in my foot permanently. The recovery time for this surgery will be up to 8 weeks or more, a few days in the hospital, and consist of a hard cast and crutches, a walking boot after that, and a few months of therapy to get used to the changes going on. My surgery date is set for some time before Christmas. (bummer, I know..)

Obviously the timing of this couldnt have gotten any worse considering the guys and I have been trying out new guitarists, talking about booking some brand new shows soon, and the release of the acoustic album coming up.  I promise, I’ll do anything and everything I have to do to make this as speedy of a recovery as possible.

I love you guys to death and having your support will mean the world to me. Which brings me to ANOTHER thing….

A close friend of our family, Savanna, has just had a bone marrow transplant. She’s a HUGE Just Kait fan and considering we’re all one big family we need to show her how much we love her and support her bravery. She’s a hero in my eyes and I want her to know that. So what I want to do is have each and every Just Kait fan email me a picture of yourselves holding up signs that say “Feel Better Savanna” or “We Love You”, “You’re my hero” something along those lines to show her how much we care and how proud of her we are. So far her recovery is going great and we want to make it even better.

So please email all pictures to justkait@comcast.net and I will make a video on behalf of the whole JK family.

We can all put a smile on a little girls face and make her recovery that much better so PLEASE participate. <3

Love you guys so much<3
