PRAISE GOD! THE HALO IS OFF! After a long day at the hospital on Friday doing CT scans on Chase's head and pancreas, we got very good results on his healing and good news - Chase was able to get his halo off. (On Monday) His break at the C-2 has healed very well. His Dr. was very impressed at how well Chase is doing in such a short period of time with his walking and mobility in his arms. He said everything is looking good, it will just take time and therapy for the fine motor skills. His pancreas is COMPLETELY HEALED and he is now able to eat whatever he wants. (GOD IS SO GOOD)He has to wear a neck brace for 4-6 wks but able to take it off during a bath. Chase was excited about getting is first real bath in a bathtub last night. After he got to see himself without the halo, he said " The old Chase is back!"
It was so nice getting a real hug without bars and screws in the way.
We are getting there! Please keep praying for a FULL RECOVERY. We thank God everyday for the mercy he has done on Chase. Everyday I am touched by this journey.

We love you all. Thank you all for the support! God Bless You!

Lisa, Dwayne, Dylan, and Chase
