Prayer Service Update

Since we had a very busy holiday season, with lots of visits from Chase’s Prayer Warriors as well as Christmas Carolers, we decided to delay the next prayer service (normally planned for this Sunday) until the first Sunday in February (the 4th) at 3 pm. We will announce the location in the next couple of weeks.

We’re pleased to report that Chase is continuing to make steady progress. He seems to like the PT sessions that we’ve been doing, so we’re increasing the frequency to 2-3 times per day. He also seems to be really working hard to open his eyes – occasionally he can open them slightly (about 1/3) but his pupils aren’t responding yet. We’re sure that’ll be next in the progression of his recovery. Chase is continuing to trigger most of his own breaths (with some pressure support from the ventilator). We’re developing a more structured protocol to get him completely independent as soon as possible, which he seems to be ready to achieve.

We truly appreciate all the continued prayers and support. There’s no doubt that it’s making all the difference in Chase’s recovery. Please join us in projecting heartfelt gratitude to our Lord for the fact that Chase is still with us and making steady progress. We believe that an attitude of gratitude for the miracle that’s unfolding before our eyes is what we need to accelerate his recovery.

Thanks again and God Bless!!
