On Wednesday I posted a small article about the tragic story of 23-year-old Jamie Belty, a crew member on film maker, Tyler Meyer's, film, "The Legend of Grassman", who was assaulted by an ex-boyfriend with a hammer.

The e-mail that I was forwarded, by a mutual friend, Avery Guerra, was a few weeks old (not the fault of Avery, it ended up in his 'spam' folder by accident), so the information on Jamie's condition was not up to date.

I am now happy to report that things are looking up for Jamie and she will recover.

Tyler Meyer sent me this message yesterday, via Facebook, that I think everyone will be very happy to read:

"I'm happy to say that in the few weeks since I sent that email out, her condition has improved dramatically. I spent time with her at the hospital on Sunday. Her jaw is wired shut, so she communicates by writing. But we sat around and talked and joked like normal. She denied it, but I'm pretty sure I even caught a couple smiles."

"She's still got a lot of healing to do, and she'll has a long road of rehab & reconstructive surgeries to endure, but we're all blown away by how fast she's progressing."

Amen.

Tyler also wanted me to tell everyone that Jamie and her family truly felt blessed by all of the prayers and donations that they had received.

Though, thankfully, Jamie has taken a turn for the better, the family still needs help paying for her medical expenses and rehabilitation.

I was just forwarded a very sad e-mail from "The Legend of Grassman" director, Tyler Meyer. According to the film maker, one of his volunteers on the film, 23-year-old Jamie Belty, was attacked this past weekend in her apartment by an ex-boyfriend with a hammer. Reportedly the young woman is in critical condition in a Cincinnati hospital.

According to Meyer, "She (Belty) suffered a good deal of head trauma and has a lot of rehabilitation ahead of her."

Several of the victims friends and family have set up a website so that people can read about what happened and donate to help her family pay her medical expenses.

All of our prayers go out to Jamie Belty, her family and close friends.

What a terrible tragedy.

Tyler Meyer also sent along this update on how the filming of "The Legend of Grassman" is proceeding.

"Since November, we've been editing, looping, shooting cut-ins, and trying to convince people to work with us on our shoot this May. That last thing is the hardest part when you have no money and you tell people you're making a Bigfoot movie. You need actors and crew and locations, and about 75% of the people you talk to think you're nuts. But the trailer we put together with last Fall's footage has helped us out in that area, as has the enthusiastic press we've received so far. So, we've been able to get that percentage down to 50%. From a producing angle, things are starting to come together. And now that the leaves have returned, we're about to resume principal photography."

Look for an update on Jamie Belty, and "The Legend of Grassman" very soon.
