On September 6th, our son, Brooks suffered a life-changing spinal cord injury following a devastating car accident. Brooks is now paralyzed from his sternum down. We do feel very fortunate that he does have use of his upper body, arms, hands and his wildly creative and unique mind is working at 110%. However, the care he needs is very expensive, which is why we need your support.
Brooks is a wonderful son, brother, nephew, cousin and good friend to many. He is a lover, a dreamer, and a healer. Prior to his accident, Brooks was working as a massage therapist, an herbalist, and is Reiki 2 certified. He was headed to India in October to study yoga at a yoga institute. His focus has always been to help others get well and feel and be their best. Brooks is one of a kind, he is a person who does not pass through life without affecting those around him for the better. Conifer High School Marching Band gives out the annual Brooks Davis Award to a student who embodies Brooks’ loving and compassionate spirit. He is very optimistic and is determined to make as much progress as possible and looks forward to becoming an active member of the community again.

Brooks has finally gotten his cervical collar removed and has been able to start regular physical and occupational therapy sessions at Craig. Last week he was fitted for a customized wheelchair and he looks forward to getting that around the end of the year. He spends several hours during the week at PEAK, a spinal rehab gym that is at Craig Hospital. Thanks for all continued encouragement, It really helps
