Jesselyn was riding with friends when they were struck by a drunk driver. She fell into a coma, and although she woke up several months later, she was in a vegetative state until her death. It had been 11 years since the accident. Jesselyn's story was featured in a series of public service announcements to discourage drunk driving. Her mother, Rosemarie, has become a poignant advocate for MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving).
