i was totally devastated at seeing those images..i had got them as a forwarded mail to dissuade ppl from drunken driving...and i had proceeded on to look for more info abt Jacqueline..
iam ready to tell anyone Jacqui's story and tell them how a rash behaviour could completely ruin the life of a budding pretty youngster..her life withered before it could bloom.
i will do my best to dissuade anyone and everyone i see from drunken driving.

This was...wow...i mean i am 18 years old and i couldnt imagine this happening to me or anyone...this broke my heart and only made me want to do something to stop all of this...i wish could talk to Jacqui herself and i just am amazed by her strength and courage. But I mean i saw this and cried. I couldnt imagine driving home and waing up to see something that wasnt me at all...all I can say is that im keeping her in my prayers...and I will pray that this will never happen to another soul...I just wish it never happened to her

It would be a dream of mine to meet Jacqui Saburido. What an amazing person! How courageous.

Could someone please send me the original e-mail about Jacqueline Saburido? I got it once, then lost it through a Window$ crash. It was the one with her face before, then on a beach in Venezuela, then the car, and her after, with also a photo of the man that did it to her. I need this to send to some young friends in Mexico, and also in China. Thanx in advance for your help!!

I was crying when I heard what had happened. If that happended to me I would still be in m y room crying. Its like u think nothing will happen when ur coming bak from a b-day party. I would never have the courage to do what u r doing!! I wish you hte bast jacqui!!!

Jacqui's story definatly touched my heart and nothing that scar yhas ever happened to me so i dont exactly know what she has been through. I went to an internet sit and saw something about her that really made me very upset, it was telling readers that she was an ugly woma ntrying to recieve pity from others. I felt that the person who posted that on the internet was heartless. She has been through alot and never will give up and I admire all the things she has and will do, her effective voice in drinking and driving is a great example. Everyone listen to her! I dont know you Jacqui, but I want to say I love you and what you are doing. I dont know you but I would lovew to get to meet you and probably wont be able to but remember, you are always beautiful!!!!!

Lots of love,

Cuando me contaron de tu historia, y vi lo que te habia pasado a vos y a tus amigos me puse a llorar.

Eres un gran ejemplo de vida, sigue adelante, Que Dios te Bendiga siempre

hi i'm Yahel and i'm from Tel Aviv, Israel.
I saw your story and pictures on the Internet and it really touched me. Seens I saw it, I think about it all the time, and I just wanna tell you that you are an amazing woman. some sites on the Internet says some things about how you look like, and I don't think it's "that" bad. However, I know you have very hard life. And I just thank God that you're still alive and have some good time sometimes.
You're alive-and it's all that matters.
I would love to see you some day.
bye.

My name is Vicky Howells from the UK (wales) and i emailed Jacqueline and also sent her $20 (which was all i could afford at the time), i know giving your money doesn't help you feel better but it does help pay for the operations. I regard Jacqueline as one of the bravest person i have ever come across. Jacqueline if you ever get to read this, hope your ok and yoru spirit is strong. Vicky x x

When I recieved this email from my sister, I was not sure what to expect. It really broke my heart , and I truly have to say it touched me alot. I do not have children myself but I can just imagine what her family has had to go through regarding the suffering and turmoil. However, Jacqueline probably is touching alot of people with her soul and her strength and she is making a point to everyone who has seen this email. I think the pictures tell a strong story of how innocence can be taken away at a young age. This is also a grim reminder that this does still exist after all the preaching that we see and hear on the news and in the papers. I give my gratitude to her for having the strength to tell this story.

Hola Jacqueline, mira he seguido tu historia por mas de un ano, y nunca te escribi ya q' no sabia q' decirte. Soy un chico de 22 anos, y vivo en la florida. Me gustaria mucho sin haberte visto nunca en persona poder darte un beso y un abrazo bien grande. Yo se q' muchas personas te admiran por tu valentia y fuerza q' tienes. En verdad te deseo muchas cosas buenas, y q' DIOS te bendiga a ti y a tu familia siempre. Para cualquiera q' quiera conectarse conmigo, y que sepa alomejor como una pueda tambien hablar personalmente con Jackie, les agradesco mucho. hitman1782@hotmail.com
Chao..gracias

Jackie was featured on a safe driving topic we studied last year. She was also in an English magazine called Closer, and i will be using her story to point out how lucky we are in a seminar for my class.

She is an inspirational woman, and exmaple to everyone and i have nothing but respect for her.

my thoughts are with her lot after i was sent the story about her. i can"t get her out of my head . I wish everyone could meet her and hear her story she could be a huge infuance in the mothers against drunk driving.hope she sees this and contacts me. taunya harris grandview wa

Simplemente no hay palabras para describir el dolor q' debe sufrir la pobre de Jaqui, yo tengo su edad y tenia su edad cuando le sucedio el accidente, y a veces me quejo por cosas sin importancia, cuando ella ha tenido q' sufrir las consecuencias por la estupidez de un tipo.
A mi tambien me llego el fwd y pense que era puro cuento para el buscar el nombre por internet me tope con q' era pura verdad!!!
Pobre chica esperemos q' su sufrimiento se pueda sanar con palabras de aliento.......

Dear Jacqui,
Your story bought a tear to my eye. I don't doubt that you hear the same thing everyday, but I have the utmost admiration for your strength and determinism ever since your accident. I hope you are well and that in the future you will finally be able to go along with your face transpalant and be happy.
All the best,
Charlie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Eres el mayor ejemplo de fortaleza y amor...amor por la vida!!!!! Así es ... " Todo lo puedo en Cristo que me fortalece" También eres un ejemplo para quienes la vida sólo es materialismo y superficialismo. En verdad lo que importa es lo que llevamos en nuestro corazòn, el amor que Dios deposita en nosotros para los demás y has sido un medio poderoso de Dios para entregarnos un mensaje de amor y fortaleza. Además Dios está dentro de tu ser, y cuando más sufres, más lo sentirás. Qué Dios te siga dando fuerzas y quisiera algún día conocerte.

Jacqui -

Your story touched me like nothing I have ever seen. Much of my attitudes and outlooks on life come from the way your story affected me.
I would love to meet you one day, Jacqui.
You are a shining light of hope in a dark, dying world.

Hi Jacqui,

My name is James. I am 15 years old from Brisbane Australia. I have recently seen a segment on 60 minutes about you and it touched my heart. Although i am not old enough to drive yet, your story has certainly opened my eyes about the devestating effects of drink driving. I am currently doing an assignment in religion at skewl. It is on an "inspirational person". I just want you to know that i have chosen to do mine on you. I wish you all the best and hope you find happiness!

Hi Jacqueline,

My name is Dan, I'm 15 years old from Australia. I am touched by your story and it only makes me look at my life and think how easily it can be changed. Every person from around the world can learn somthing from your story I can only imagine your pain and I am deeply sorry I wish I could do somthing to help. Good luck and keep fighting you will get there one day.

Hi Jacqui

I'm from the UK (England) and I recently read your story in a magazine called Closer and also saw you on a television programme regarding human face transplants. I just wanted to say how much your story touched my heart.

I hope you get to read this because it just proves that there are so many people all over the world that care so much about you. You are an amazing, courageous, wonderful woman and a truly beautiful person.

Nothing I have ever seen has made me feel so sad, you had your whole life ahead of you and then it was taken away by someone who stupidly drove a car whilst drunk. I pray for you every day and hope that your dreams of a face tranplant are a success. I also pray that your dreams of marriage and children come true for you. Any man that loves you will love you for the beautiful person that you are, he will see YOU past the burns.

I would love to meet you one day. I think you're great.

All the best Jacqui.

Clairexxx

Does anyone reading this know how I can e-mail Jacqui?

P.S And this is to anyone that makes nasty comments about Jacqui, I think it's worth remembering that what happened to Jacqui can happen to anyone, including YOU. You just need to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

hola! muchos te dirán q te cuides y no pretendo ser la diferencia, pero creo q tu fortaleza está presente en la soledad de tu cuarto, en el dialogo con tus amigos cercanos, en tu paso adelante. Nadie puede sentir lo q se pasa por tu mente, las nuevas dificultades que debiste y debes aprender a superar, pero el drama no está en cómo estés aqui el drama estaría si tu no estuvieras:) sigue adelante

hi,i looked on this website to find information about drink driving at first, because we had to do a talk on it in college. but after i saw the dreadful photos of poor jacqueline i thought something else had to be done. i now un a campaign against drink driving, as i am trying to protect as many people as i can from this happening to them. i personally have never seen something so upsetting in my life. thinking of you x x kym x x

Jacqui: You are such an inspiration girl. I can't begin to understand how hard it is for you to have to endure daily but I know that God really must have created you with an awesome plan. You have touched so many lives and for the GOOD. Your reward in heaven is going to be great so you can count on it. Your testimony has made me realize how selfish I have been in the past. I wish I could be more like you.

Tell Jacqueline that there's a person that can totally restore her, His name is JESUS,

can someone please send me the original email of jacqueline story i received it before but it was deleted from my email sometime ago. i'm doing a lesson on alcohol and teens, so please someone send me the email at aqueelah78@aol.com

Hola, Jacky...cada vez que me siento sin fuerzas por circunstancias que afectan la vida de uno, leo tu historia, y veo tus fotos, me das fuerzas y valentia.Eres tan bella y valiente, que nada ni nadie te quito lo que tu eres y seras. Eres el mas importante ejemplo de vida que he visto. Asi que Dios te bendiga, oro por ti. Keep Going, Jackie...!

Does Jacqui have an email address? I saw this story on the BBC News website and it might give her some hope?

You're a wonderful inspiration Jacqui...

HOLA Jacqui como estas espero que hapesar de todo te encuentres bien yo sabia que papa Dios hacia milagros y uno de ellos eres tus . Ere especial , valiente , tienes mucha fe y mucho valor en tu corazon para enfrentarte al mundo y eso es una cualidad bellisima que papa Dios te brindo . Mi ra este milagro por el lado pasitivo sabe a un mas cuanto te aman tus padres , que Dios te tiene con un proposito en la vida y ese es hacer con siencia a la jente que el alchol y el bolante no pegan sobre todo sabes que Dios te ama y que siempre cada segundo , cada minuto en ese acsidente el nuca te abandono al rebes te dio ladicha de sobrevivir . Espero que sigas luchando y otra de las cosa buenas bensiste a la muerte y en esos acsidetes no mucho lo hasen . Felicidades por que tienes un corazon enorme . Cuidate y no temas que Dios esta con tigo . Te quiere una atmiradora Cynthia de Puerto Rico. en mi escuela se te quiere y se te admira mucho .

Eu fiquei sabendo do ocorrido com Jacqueline há poucos dias, fiquei muito comovido com tudo, pela história, familiares e amigos de Jack. Espero que o rapaz esteja pagando tudo pelo grande erro que cometeu.
Espero que Jacqueline esteja bem hoje e continue iluminando à nós com o brilho da sual alma.
Deus nos deu o espírito, que nunca morre e é indestrutível, a única razão da vida.
Deus é poderoso, Luz, tem o poder sobre todas as coisas.
Se o Todo Poderoso, escolheu Jack para salvar muitas vidas (Luz) dessa maneira, ele será justo, vai recompensar Jack em forma de Luz ou de alguma outra maneira.
Quem iria adivinhar que um jovem louco motorista bêbado, iria bater no carro onde Jack e seus amigos estavam, poderia e pode acontecer com qualquer um.
Por isso Jack faz campanhas publicitárias Don´t Drink and Drive.
"Not everyone who gets hit by a drunk driver dies".
Viva Jacqueline!

Jacqui is beyond amazing. I cannot give her enough praise, admiration and respect. She deserves our gratitude for being so brave and persevering through everything life has handed her. Jacqui, you are a hero!!! I cry and smile when I think of you. I cry because you are so amazing; and I smile because you are so sweet. I feel blessed that God has shared you with the world and may your wisdom educate and save us.

Jaqui tu historia me a conmovido de una manera muy fuerte.Te admiro mas que a nadie . eres una chica muy fuerte y tu belleza espiritual es lo unico que importa.quisiera verte y darte un abrazo muy fuerte porque eres una inspiracion para todos. siempre estaras en mi corazon amiga y mis oraciones estan contigo, que dios te bendiga.

Hello Jacqueline ,

You aren't just a body , you are an spirity , too !
The important it is you are here and can to continue your life , yes. And I would like to say you i wanna be your friend .
In this life persons need others persons . We all are brothers and sisters each other . You aren't alone . There are several people who need you .
A big embrace to you .

I would like to meet her in person. She seems like a sweet girl. Also I had a dream about her last year. I heard that a kid called her a monster. I felt sorry for her.

I was shocked to see the forwarded mail with Jacqi's story. Then tried to know more about her from internet.Knowing her story one should prevent dunken fellows from driving. I apreciate Jacqi's courage.

I've read the "Chasing Hope" article on Jaqui, and I think it's ashame she has to deal with something like that, and she's so young.........The boy who did this should be ashamed of himself. She had dreams of having a family, but now she wonders who will want her. She was so beautiful before this happened, but to me, she's still beautiful because she dosen't get depreaaed about it, and she keeps hope alive.

EEEE CUANDO UN AMIGO ME MANDO LA PAGINA DND SALIA JAKELINE IO DIJE ¿¿ Q WEA??? LA MEDIA CAGA , Y DIJE A ESTO ES UN FOTO-SHOP

Hi Jacqueline, you are beautiful. We want You be very well now and always.

Jacqui:

Definitivamente tu alma se eleva por sobre todas las demás, pues tiene un brillo tan impresionante que deslumbra, eres un ser especial... Dios camina a tu lado y muchos rezamos por tí... un fuerte abrazo!

I am 14 years old. All this happened to Jacqueline when I was 9 years old. But sadly I didn't find out anything about it till Thursday December 2,2004. We watched a program called Inside Out. She told her story on it. I cried so hard that my friends had to walk to me my class. I am lookin and reading the story of Jacqueline and I sent all my friends some pics and info of her. I told them that they shouldnt drink and drive because they can hurt anyone even if they dont mean it. I have the address to send Jacqui some letters and cards. If you want it plz e mail me. I will be more than happy to give it to you.

hola jacquelin, estoy muy impresionada por las fotos, me da mucho gusto que estes viva, uno nunca valora las cosas y tu quisiste vivir y seguir adelante.

Jacqueline: Vi tu historia por primera vez en el 2002 en un periodico de mi pais y desde entonces tu nombre quedo grabado en mi cabeza. Sinceramente, es increible la fortaleza que tienes, eres un ejemplo para mi pues en realidad no puedo imaginar que seria de mi si esto me sucediera porque no creo ser tan fuerte, y la verdad es que nadie esta exento de sufrir un accidente como el tuyo. Decidi buscar informacion sobre ti en internet y encontre varios sitios e incluso una presentacion power point que he enviado a varios. Siempre quise tener una oportunidad de decirte lo mucho que te admiro y darte mi apoyo, asi que espero algun dia leas esto y sepas que habemos muchos que te tenemos en mente aunque no te conoscamos. Fuiste y seras siempre bella, porque la belleza de tu alma y el amor que profesas es tan grande que iluminas a todos a tu alrededor.

Dearest Jacqui,

I'm too late. I only heard about your story last year but the one who told me about it forgot your name. I tried to do research and even register at Oprah's site but I can't find you. It was only then yesterday when somebody emailed me that I was able to know more about you.

I read your story and I cried. I LOVE YOU, dear Jacqui. I'm praying for you. I admire you for your bravery. If this happened to me, I would cry and get depressed in my room everyday. I would just die.

Take care always. Thousands of people in the world whom you never even met CARE ABOUT YOU.

Hugs and love from me,
Amabel
