A California father\u00a0is calling his two young children heroes after their quick thinking reportedly helped save his life during a violent road-rage attack earlier this month.<\/p>\n

According to a GoFundMe created by his family, 38-year-old Chris Davison is recovering from multiple stab wounds sustained on October 17 in Ramona, California.<\/p>\n

Davison\u2019s wife described the terrifying ordeal in detail on the fundraiser page.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn October 17th, our lives changed forever. My husband, Chris, was taking our two young children to a pumpkin patch when an unprovoked act of violence turned a normal family outing into a living nightmare.\u201d<\/p>\n

Davison had been driving to a Halloween festival with his 6-year-old daughter and 8-year-old son when the attack occurred.<\/p>\n

He\u00a0told ABC 10News San Diego<\/a>\u00a0that a black pickup truck followed him closely for several miles on a San Diego County interstate, revving its engine and twice forcing his vehicle off the road.<\/p>\n

When Davison pulled over to see what was happening, the other driver, later identified by authorities as Noah Kane, also stopped, got out, and attacked him with a knife, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) confirmed to FOX5\/KUSI.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot one word, just a demonic stare in this man\u2019s eyes,\u201d Davison told 10News.<\/p>\n

After being\u00a0stabbed multiple times\u00a0in front of his children, Davison collapsed on the side of the road. Despite their fear, both kids immediately rushed to help.<\/p>\n

His 8-year-old son first tried to stop the bleeding with a dinosaur sticker before finding a phone charger cord to tie around one of his father\u2019s wounds.<\/p>\n

Both children also used their sweaters to help stop the bleeding. His 6-year-old daughter hung out the car window, screaming for help in her princess dress.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy son was screaming, \u2018Stay awake, Dad. Stay awake,\u2019\u201d Davison recalled.<\/p>\n

A close family friend who had been following on a motorcycle arrived moments later, cleaned blood from Davison\u2019s phone, and called 911.<\/p>\n

Authorities later arrested Noah Kane in connection with the assault, the CHP\u00a0confirmed to FOX5\/KUSI.<\/a><\/p>\n

Davison was hospitalized with injuries that were not considered life-threatening.<\/p>\n

Authorities have not released a possible motive for the attack.<\/p>\n

Davison\u2019s wife said her husband\u2019s survival was \u201cnothing short of a miracle.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHis injuries were severe, but somehow no major organs were hit. We truly believe God was with him that day,\u201d she wrote. \u201cHe\u2019s now home recovering, surrounded by the people who love him.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the family is grateful that Chris is alive, they face a long road ahead.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur children witnessed everything,\u201d she continued. \u201cWe are now facing the long road of trauma therapy, medical follow-ups, and lost income while Chris heals.\u201d<\/p>\n
