"I Do CrossFit:" Jewell's Story of Survival and Strength

In 2009, Todd Widman was asked to be the CrossFit Kids program manager and quickly realized he had a lot to learn about coaching children. He immersed himself in the challenge, ultimately creating the blueprint for how CrossFit Kids is taught today.

The Colman family met Widman a decade ago through the kids program at ZooTown CrossFit. For Jewell Colman, class quickly became the best part of her week — a place to move, build confidence, and form friendships that still exist.

Five months after she started CrossFit, tragedy struck. In November 2018, Jewell was hit by a car while boarding her school bus. She was airlifted to Seattle, Washington, with two brain bleeds, a fractured skull, a broken jaw and pelvis, and 13 additional broken bones. Doctors warned her family that if she survived the coma, she would likely remain in a vegetative state.

Instead, she defied every expectation. As she recovered, doctors marveled at her resilience. When they asked where her strength came from, her answer was simple: "I do CrossFit."

Now 14, Jewell has made a remarkable recovery. She's back to playing sports, helping around the house, and leading both at home and at school. And yes, she's back in CrossFit Kids.

"I get choked up saying it," says her father, Shane Colman. "Todd gave her a skill set, but he also gave her a mindset. That mindset will carry her through life because ... as you can see, I'm raising a warrior."

SLEEP: THE SWEET ZZZZZZ’S
Date: 21 July 2026
by Dr. Nortje MD

"Sleep, in essence, is not just about resting or taking a break. It is a complex function that is vital for health and daily function. It affects brain functions, such as memory. It strengthens the security system of the immune barriers. And do not forget our long-term battle with appetite regulation; a good sleeping pattern prevents weight gain (a sneaky way those sugar cravings are controlled).

Then the discussion would not be about the functions of sleep, but rather where no system in the body is absolutely unaffected.
The author of this blog is Dr. Lizelle Nortje, an obstetrician and gynecologist in private practice for over 18years. Also, an occasional sleep-deprived woman with an unbounded appreciation for the ultimate power nap. Her endless interest in Functional Female Health is a daily pursuit of knowledge.

Facing daily challenges about the life of a woman, in person and in practice, became the essence of further research and clinical application."
