Chase passed his swallowing test and he is able to eat tonight. His first meal since the accident will be noodles, applesauce, and banana baby food. That sounds awful to us but to him its the best meal ever. He is so happy to finally be able to eat. We just pray that his stomach will tolerate the food and there will be no problems.

In therapy Chase walked with a walking assistance device. Once he got comfortable taking steps, his pace got faster and faster and he was basically running down the hall. His therapist had a hard time keeping up with him. Of course this is not his body weight but this is working to build up the muscles in his legs and to teach him how to walk again. It was a very uplifting moment. God is so good! He is able to balance himself in a sitting position now and also to help transfer from wheelchair to bed. Chase is working hard in therapy on his upper body movements. His arms, hands, and fingers are getting more mobility each day.

Chase is in good spirits. He loves to play cards and board games. He is the Connect 4 champ in rehab.
Chase wants everybody to know that he got a phone call from Aladdin from disney. That really made his day!!!

Thank you all for the cards, gifts, money, visits, support, organinizing benefits for Chase and everyone that have bought t-shirts. You all arel so special to us and a blessing to have in our lives.

We love you,
Dwayne, Lisa, Dylan, and Chase
