Her family shattered, Jen looked at the doctors and she told them with a conviction she still can't explain: 'Jacob is going to be OK.'
Jeremy Bush had gotten up early that August morning in 2020, drank a cup of coffee and headed to the fire station. This morning wouldn't be one of those mornings where he and his son Jacob made breakfast together, a feast of bacon, eggs, sausage and Jeremy's out-of-this-world gravy.
"I just knew. I cannot describe it," she said."He is my fighter. I knew in my heart he was going to be OK."Jacob will take the field as a guard for Mishawaka High School football Friday night, playing in sectionals against South Bend Adams. One of the firefighters helping Jen plan Jeremy's funeral drove her to the hospital."And I see my baby boy awake," she said."And one of the doctors told me, 'You weren't kidding Jen Bush. He made it. He is OK.'"
Jeremy wore No. 68 for the Mishawaka football team in the 1990s. That is Jacob's number, too. When Jacob took the field as a freshman, Jeremy beamed as he watched his son play. Jacob fought through therapy. It wasn't easy. It was as tough as any football practice he'd had. Maybe tougher. And cooking those big breakfasts together in the morning and then taking them to Jen and Jillian in bed.
