Encouragement
Nick Saban, head football coach University of Alabama
Jackson received an autographed note from Coach Saban when in his 26 month stay at Cincinnati Children's Hospital. It came in a box with the Alabama logo printed on it. The box included this and several Crimson Tide items.
Many months later, Jackson received a phone call from a "blocked number". Usually Jackson does not answer these but for some reason he did. It was Coach Nick Saban calling Jackson.
Coach Saban said he heard about Jackson being in the hospital and having a tough time. He called to say Merry Christmas. (This was just before Jackson's 2nd Christmas spend in the hospital in a row). Coach Saban told Jackson that hoping that God blesses him and that he was thinking about him and that he hopes things go well for Jackson.
For Coach Saban to take a few minutes of his time to call Jackson meant the world to Jackson. It was a moment of encouragment and inspiration that Jackson will remember forever.
