I was born on September 30, 1977, to John and Peggy Hudson. I was born without arms, and half of my right leg with my foot where the knee would be. Shortly after my mother conceived, the doctors thought she had conceived in one of her fallopian tubes. They performed exploratory surgery and found that she was carrying me in the womb, and let her proceed to full term.
When I was born, my condition was a total shock to the doctors, to my parents and the rest of my family. The doctors wanted to take me from my parents. They told my mom I would not live a "normal" life. They told her that I would never be able to play with the other kids, or even sit on my own. After receiving the news, my mom decided to sign herself out of the hospital. Even though at that time she was unsaved, God had already started to work in our lives.
