Jessica made the courageous decision to begin her recovery just before giving birth to her son, Jeremiah. When he arrived, she felt an overwhelming determination to heal and become the best mother she could be. While in the nursery, Jessica developed a safety plan to take her son home and continue outpatient treatment.
Despite her progress, DCS determined that additional time in recovery would be needed before approving her plan, and Jeremiah was removed from her care. Instead of letting this setback derail her, Jessica remained focused on recovery. She worked tirelessly with her Hushabye care team, secured employment, and built a stable, nurturing environment for her son.
After several months of dedication, Jessica achieved all of her goals and Jeremiah was returned to her custody. On November 1, 2025 Jessica celebrated 11 months in recovery by speaking at and attending Hushabye’s Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star fundraising event with baby Jeremiah. This was a joyful milestone that reflects how far they have both come. Jessica is an inspiring example of resilience, hope, and the power of compassionate support.
