Homecoming

Giving everyone an update with some GREAT news! Courtney is leaving the hospital today!!!!!!

She was allowed to go home yesterdays for 6 hours. I went to the Chase house to see the whole family--it was so great to see them together again! And even better to see Courtney's smiling face! She even showed me how she could take a few steps. Matt put all sorts of pizza ingredients in little bowls for the girls, and Courtney and Larissa got to make their own pizza--it was nice to watch them creating their culinary masterpiece. If only they ate it as well as designing it! It's important that Matt and Becca encourage Courtney to eat, and it was so smart of them to do so with the pizza.

Apparently yesterday went so well, (and she's getting better) that the doctors thought today would be a good day to finally send her home for good. I couldn't be happier for her and the Chase family. It's been a long month for them. Courtney should be able to resume her chemo treatment soon, and get back on track. Not only that, but it should only be a matter of days before she can go back to kindergarten!

I'm so proud of Courtney--she's a fighter, that's for sure.
