I’ve Fallen and I Can’t Get Up!

September 16, 2016 by Jeff Davidson Leave a Comment

“Help, I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!” I used to roll my eyes every time that commercial came on the television. My friends and I made it into a joke, working the reference into our conversations. Then last Thursday afternoon occurred. I am recovering from extensive surgery on both my feet. I’ve spent the last several months in a wheelchair with casts on my legs. I have been astonished … [Read more...]

His Last Thought Was Of You

March 11, 2016 by Jeff Davidson 1 Comment

  He was the last thought I had before I left. All the preparation, all the plans, and all the instructions—everything had been leading to this moment.

The baskets of unfolded clothes are stacked on top of each other like planes circling the airport. Another bill lies unopened on the kitchen counter. You don’t even want to open it tonight … [Read more...]

Chosen and Favored

  Never in her wildest dreams could she have imagined this would happen. It certainly wasn’t the path she had planned out for her life. When she initially got the news she was stunned. After all, this pregnancy wasn’t even expected in the first place. But to then get the news that this child wouldn’t be typical…well, no one originally plans or even dreams of giving birth to a special … [Read more...]

The Only Name That Matters

November 20, 2015 by Jeff Davidson 5 Comments

  “Cerebral palsy. Autism. Epilepsy. Intellectually disabled. Cognitively impaired.” I read the words over and over in a whisper. In fact, those words seemed to leap off the page despite the rest of the wording that filled the legal document I was holding. They were only eight words, but those were the eight words used to define my son. Our son has just turned eighteen years … [Read more...]
