Jessica Spiker is the daughter and niece to former Cumberland Alumni and is the cousin to a couple students. Jessica was born with a heart condition in 2007. Due to this condition, her lungs had to work harder. In February of 2020, Jessica was the recipient of a transplant of both her heart and lungs. Now only 2 years later, her body is rejecting the transplant. Unfortunately, there isn't much the doctors can do. In support of Jessica and her family, we ask the students to wear purple tomorrow (2/25), Jessica's favorite color.
