The Trip. . . (Chase not feeling so well)


Hello everyone,
This is Chase's Mimi. We just returned home from
being with Chase in Cleveland. We, (meaning my friend
Linda Woodruff and I). When we arrived on Tues.
morning, Chase was not feeling well. I went ahead and
sent his Mother home, so that she could spend some
time with her baby and Husband.
I will let you all know how much I admire Jessica for
her strength and courage during all of this. She
spends the entire week with Chase at the Ronald
McDonald house, leaving at 7:15 am every morning to
make it to his radiation appointment mon-friday. They
take the shuttle over to the Cleveland Clinic, then
Chase needs to be prepped for radiation. This is not
an easy task, because they have to put him under
anesthesia every time, every morning for his
treatment. 9 times out of 10, he is very scared and
apprehensive about "going to sleep". Then after his
treatment, he needs to wake up. Sometimes he is in a
great mood, alot of times he is in a "not so good
mood". Then he needs to go to another part of the
hospital for his chemo treatment. The chemo treatment
isn't every day, but sometimes it is.
Sometimes it may be as late as 3 or 4pm before they
can return to (home) Ronald McDonald house. Then it is
usually spent keeping him calm and helping to hold his
head, while he is throwing up. I apologize for being
graphic about this, but this is what our whole family
is dealing with, especially Chase.
Yesterday was spent with Chase, while Linda and I
took turns helping him, holding his head (while he was
throwing up) and trying to take his mind off of being
sick. When he wasn't throwing up, he was dealing with
diarreah. These are typical side effects from the
chemo. But, I will tell you, it breaks my heart to see
someone I love as much as I do Chase, to be sick like
this. My heart goes out to any child, Mom and Dad,
family member, or care-giver who has to deal with
this.
Linda and I, decided to take him to the ER, because
it was getting bad, and Chase really was sick. After
tests were ran, it was decided that he was dehydrated.
They put an IV in him with fluids, and within about a
1/2 hour he really was feeling much better. But it
scared me so bad and Linda too. I really don't know
how Jessica does this up there, week after week by
herself.
Chase had a much better day today. He and Linda
played outside, he helped me in the laundry room
(doing laundry), and we watched movies. I think he and
Linda watched Fat Albert 10 times! He and Linda put a
puzzle together, and then Chase and I walked down to
the pharmacy to pick up some of his meds.
When Jessica came back this evening, you would have
thought Linda and I never existed. He sure is his
Mommy's special guy! The bond that a Mother has with
her child, is one of absolute amazement.
I look around at the families staying at the Ronald
McDonald House, some of them have been there a long
time. They are from all over the world. Every one of
those Mom's and Dads are so special. They take nothing
for granted, and every accomplishment from their
children, are celebrated with such triumph!
Please say a prayer for Chase and his family, along
with all of the other families who are dealing with
their children's illness's.
I would also like to thank everyone who has helped
with cards, letters, donations, and well wishes. If
you haven't seen your name on the Thank you page,
please be patient. I will get to them as soon as I
can.
Please keep Chase and his family in your prayers.Thank You for your Prayers and Thoughts.God Bless You!
