Living and laughing with a disability - cerebral palsy; ordinary life, extraordinary circumstances.

: : Darius Goes West - The Movie : :

Darius Weems has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. He is seeing the country with the help of friiends and is trying to convince MTV to Pimp his Ride, his wheelchair.

Per Debbie Schlussel's blog, MTV turned Darius down. Very sad to turn down such courage and exuberance for life.

Jodie is a huge Jerry Lewis fan. Our TV is on from its start through it's entirety. MD is not our disability, but many of the challenges we face are the same.

Kids like Darius are braver than we are. We have old age to look forward to; Darius does not.

Live on Darius!
