Chad Update 10/28 We went back to see Dr. Rosen (Chads surgeon) this past Thursday for a follow up. He removed a drain tube then sent us over to Cobb for a few hours to get an IV put in. Chad was dehydrating a bit and needed some fluids so we were there several unexpected hours before returning here to our house. Dr. Rosen also shared that they had discovered Cancer in 2 of 25 Lymph nodes tested so Chad will be having some Chemo treatments later on after all. We were hoping that wouldnt be the case but we will play the cards that have been dealt to us. On a more positive note I heard Chad laugh a deep belly laugh the other night while watching a movie with his daughter Macie and Ramona. It lifted my spirits a great deal to hear him laugh if only for a moment! I have been twisting his toes and flipping his ear now for over two weeks trying to get a rise. Finally yesterday while he sat on the end of the couch I grabbed for grabbed for him....... and he grabbed for me and wouldnt let go!! I knew then we were making some headway! He is doing good with his accessory bag so far and we are becoming very skilled with this process. It is just a thing when it is YOUR son and not someone elses. I would deal with that around the clock if it were necessary. Bottom line is that we are seeing good things happen and I see God already using us to be an encouragement to those around us. We are not sure about what lies around the next bend but we boldly serve the One who does. Please continue to remember Chad in your prayers as we continue on this unexpected journey!
