Prayer Service for Chase

Sorry for the late notice, but the monthly prayer service for Chase is scheduled for tomorrow – the first Sunday of the month at 3 pm. It will be held at St. Anastasia once again for one hour and we will be including intentions for all sick children and their families.

Chase seems to have responded well, once again, to the antibiotic treatment of his blood infection. His hemoglobin is on the rebound and the rest of this bloodwork looked much better this past week. He is also starting to initiate more of his breathing again (not as much as he did a couple of weeks ago) and hopefully this will continue as his hemoglobin rebounds.

We also conducted another home-based EEG this past week along with a series of brain stimulation treatments. The response was quite significant – a major shift in the frequencies of his brainwaves in every region of the brain – much more delta activity, which is a very positive change. We don’t know what this means yet, other than the fact that his brain isn’t inert – there is definitely a change taking place and we’re hoping that it continues. The developer of this system is encouraged and has suggested using a new protocol that has been effective at stimulating even more rapid changes in brainwave activity.

Thanks again for all the prayers and support! Chase is continuing to make us proud as a strong fighter – he has such an incredible spirit that it’s very inspiring.

God Bless!!
