Hi! My name is Devon. I have a little brother named Jeffrey (although, as you can tell from the picture, I've become the little one... and he's grown since it was taken).

Twelve years ago, when Jeffrey was born, we discovered that Jeffrey has low-tone Cerebral Palsy. Since then, we've received enough explanations for his differences to fill a novel.

Explaining Jeffrey's differences is not the goal I have in mind for this website, however. My hope for this website is that, through it, Jeffrey can give you a perspective on the special needs world.

This project began when I wrote a research paper and created a book and website about Jeffrey for my documentary project in my junior year of high school. The focus of the documentary was on Jeffrey's team of teachers, therapists, friends, and family and how they all support his endeavor to improve his communication.

A few months later, I decided on a bit of a whim to create a Facebook for Jeffrey so that his friends could keep up with what he was doing, particularly the ones who had gone off to college. To start his profile, though, he had to have his own email address... and suddenly, Jeffrey became an internet junkie (sort of)!

This is Jeffrey's latest addition to the Internet. On this site, you will find a Blog, where I will post funny Jeffrey stories, general thoughts about the special needs world, and links to interesting articles; a page that includes the first edition of my documentary book, In Other Words; a gallery of videos; and various photo galleries.

I hope that you enjoy Jeffrey's website!
