An amazing story about one couple’s commitment to helping the less fortunate. The most interesting thing is that Dave actually has Oppositional Defiance Disorder.
“Yes, she and her husband of 37 years, David, have seven children with disabilities, ages 31 to 5. The Swanton couple has adopted nearly all of them, the first as Gerald Ford was preparing to leave the White House.
However, anyone who believes they have the perfect pedestal for the Quicks should save it for someone else. The Quicks don’t want, need, or seek accolades. ”

Stories like this are encouraging. Oppositional Defiance Disorder doesn’t mean the world is over. It just takes commitment and perseverance.
I promise it gets better.
