"I’m blessed. It could have easily been a much more dangerous or life-threatening situation had I been hit anywhere else – and the same for my friends as well. I’m thankful that even though they were shot, they’re going to be OK," she told FOX 35 in July.

"I think it’s ridiculous that you can’t go out to celebrate your birthday with your friends without fearing you might get shot at the end of the night," Jaimy said.
