Braska-GENIE & Zack-JAKE

BRASKA and ZACK for the Davis family

Gary and Denise Peddington Davis met as children in 1968 in England. They grew up as childhood sweethearts and also best friends. Gary returned to the United States and joined the Navy shortly after highschool and was stationed on a US Navy Submarine. Meanwhile, Denise was furthering her education and became a Teacher. Gary and Denise’s love for each other continued and they finally married in 1992. During their 19 years of marriage they have welcomed 6 biological children and 3 adopted children. They have been involved in orphan ministry for twelve years and during that time adopted Makayla who is now thirteen and came home in 2001 and Patrick, now age eleven, who came home in 2002. In 2011 the Davis family welcomed their youngest daughter Chrissie home from Bulgaria. They learned about Chrissie through Reece’s Rainbow. After adopting Chrissie, both Gary and Denise knew that their next child or children would be listed on Reece’s Rainbow and they looked forward to falling in love with future additions to their family.
When Gary and Denise left Bulgaria, their hearts stayed with some of the precious children that remained. One set of children that pulled at their hearts was a sibling group of two children whose names were Braska and Zack. These sweet kids have a condition called Cystic Fibrosis (CF). CF is a genetic disorder that affects the lungs and digestive system, making the children vulnerable to repeated lung infections, difficulties breathing, frequent chronic lung diseases and infections. Cf also causes malnutriousment due to lack of protein absorbing and serve pain in the abdomen. Both Braska and Zack have advanced CF and if left untreated their lives will be shortened and they will spend them in chronic pain. Both children will need lifetime medication and treatments to survive. Braska and Zack are also developmentally delayed and need to be in a family where they can receive the therapy and care they need to reach their full potential.
Gary and Denise are ready and willing to meet Braska and Zack’s needs and to welcome them into their family. However, they need your help to bring these precious children home. Adoption is expensive, as we all know, and the Davisfamily only just recently brought Chrissie home. This family is praying that God would provide and build their adoption fund so that these siblings can come home quickly. Will you help bring Braska and Zack home to their family’s waiting arms?
