What started as a request to go to a race and meet Jeff Gordon turned into a three-day whirlwind of racing-related events at the Bank of America 500 and a bedroom makeover for 15-year-old MacKenzie Jamison of Cornelius.
MacKenzie is a patient at Jeff Gordon Children’s Hospital in Concord with epilepsy, autism, anxiety and depression.
Jeff Gordon had always been MacKenzie’s favorite driver, so meeting with him was all she wanted. She and her mom, Heather Jones, had no idea what would be in store for them.
