face it. disability has a face . . .

   Jamie Lytton, Humboldt

Many other things about Jamie's life would surprise those early naysayers. She's a regular at shops and restaurants throughout Jackson. Several days a week she takes kickboxing and step aerobic classes at Gold's Gym. She gets together with several women in town who belong to the same YaYa Sisterhood club. And she recently retired from her 14-year position at a McDonald's restaurant. She has also worked at a day care facility and volunteered visiting patients at a local hospital. And she has her own apartment too.
