and then I was walking with a walker—all in one day!” exclaimed Cecilia.

Dave Sinclair Lincoln & Ranken Jordan Team Up Automotive dealer Dave Sinclair Lincoln is participating again in the Living Fit Expo, a health and wellness event scheduled for January 25 at Plaza Frontenac. The longtime area dealer will invite participants to test drive Lincoln vehicles throughout the day. For every test drive completed, Dave Sinclair Lincoln will donate $20 to Ranken Jordan – A Pediatric Specialty Hospital.

Dedicated to serving the Saint Louis area, Dave Sinclair Lincoln continues its commitment to corporate responsibility and community service.

really big mess,” Cecilia remembered.

Ranken Jordan is a bridge hospital that transitions children from hospital to home.

The 34-bed non-profit specialty hospital offers care through an inpatient program, free community programs and several outpatient programs, including outpatient therapy, intensive day treatment, a physiatry clinic and a comprehensive orthopedic/ rehabilitation clinic for children with complex medical conditions.

Her family faced the prospect of aroundthe-clock home care for Cecilia until she was ready for therapy. Meanwhile, Joe remained in the ICU, still in a coma from a life-threatening head injury. Instead, Cecilia was transferred to Ranken Jordan, a pediatric specialty hospital in St. Louis that collaborates with the region’s acute care hospitals to provide transitional care for seriously injured and medically complex children.

Ranken Jordan’s Care Beyond the Bedside healthcare model helps more than 300 inpatients recover every year, including St. Louis teenager Cecilia Detwiler.

On July fourth, 2010, 15-year-old Cecilia Detwiler and her brother Joe suffered massive injuries when their truck veered off the road and crashed into a tree. They barely survived. “I was trapped in the car for two hours while they tried to get me out. It was a 6

Yoga & Spa Magazine • Special Edition 2014

After a gut-wrenching extrication, they were air-lifted to St. Louis Children’s Hospital, where Cecilia spent the next month recovering from several surgeries to salvage her mangled legs. At her acute-care discharge, she could barely move her legs.

Cecilia also was suffering from acute stress disorder, a precursor to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. “They’re not my legs,” she would lament, while looking askance at her thick bandages.

From her first hours in the state-of-the-art facility, unique in the U.S., Cecilia’s complex wounds, physical and psychological, were treated comprehensively by a team that included a pediatrician, a physiatrist, and a psychiatrist. Long before formal therapy began, she felt herself getting better. “I just got clearance to walk and it hadn’t been two hours and they got me in the pool. I started walking in the pool, then on the parallel bars

Blessed with a beautiful voice and not shy about sharing her talent, she often sang through her painful therapy sessions. Lauri Tanner, President & CEO of Ranken Jordan, said the secret of Cecilia’s success was her work ethic. “When I talk with Cecilia about her success, she frequently says that she ‘got up and got out of bed.’ She didn’t just lie around in bed and feel sorry for herself.

She was up and moving and that made her feel alive,” Tanner said. “That’s the point of Ranken Jordan anyway, to just get out of your room,” Cecilia explained.

Dr. Nick Holekamp, Ranken Jordan’s chief medical officer, says Cecilia is a good example of somebody who benefited from the hospital’s “Care Beyond the Bedside” approach. “She needed intensive medical management and highly skilled and frequent intensive therapies. Cecilia needed the oversight of our specialists, including the physiatrists and the psychiatrist”, said Holekamp. “Without Ranken Jordan, the process would have been longer, slower and more difficult. The family saw for themselves what a big difference we made in her life.”

Deftly repairing her legs, medical experts thought Cecilia would need several months of inpatient rehab, but she was home in six weeks. Her brother Joe also recovered better than anyone predicted. Within a year both teens were back in high school, fully engaged in the challenges and joys of life.

Today, Joe and Cecilia are both successful college students.
