To support Jordynn and her parents, Crystal Miller set up a GoFundMe on Tuesday. In two days, the fundraiser has garnered more than $22,000 from over 220 donors.

Miller noted that the fundraiser proceeds will help cover Jordynn's medical expenses and the lost wages of her parents as they take off work to stay by her side.

"Kim and Trevor [Jordynn's parents] are completely blown away and incredibly grateful for all the support they have received during this horrific time," Miller wrote in an update on Wednesday. "I have read each and every donor name and the people sending prayers over and over again and sending back prayers and gratitude to all of you. I can't say it enough - THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH."

On Wednesday, Jordynn had some reflexive movement, a reassuring sign as she receives critical care.

"She still has a VERY long way to go, and is still considered critical, but we are tremendously grateful for the smallest positive signs," Miller wrote. "Please keep those prayers coming strong! We all love you sweet girl."

In the comments of the GoFundMe, many donors have sent well wishes to Jordynn and her family. Nearly every commenter noted that Jordynn would be in their prayers in the coming days.
