DIAGNOSED WITH ALL LEUKEMIA ON JULY 3, 2002
CHASE TOOK GOD'S HAND ON MARCH 12, 2003
CHASE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH HIGH RISK ALL LEUKEMIA JULY 3, 2002. HE WENT THROUGH 3 ROUNDS OF INTENSE CHEMOTHERAPY AND CRANIAL AND TESTICLE RADIATION. HIS LIVER DEVELOPED A DISEASE DUE TO THE INTENSE CHEMOTHERAPY. HE WAS IN INTENSIVE CARE THE LAST 8 DAYS IN AN INDUCED COMA.
~Chase's Journey~
CHASE WAS A VERY ACTIVE BOY WITH A HUGE LOVE FOR LIFE. THE SUMMER OF 2002 CHASE HAD A FEW DAYS OF FEELING VERY TIRED AND SO UNLIKE HIS HAPPY GO LUCKY SELF. I TOOK HIM TO THE DOCTORS BECAUSE HE WAS SLEEPING a lot AND HAD THESE LITTLE RED RASHES ON HIM. HE HAD BRUISING, BUT TOLD US HOW HE HAD GOTTEN EACH ONE. THANK GOD THE DOCTOR WAS ON TOP OF THINGS AND RAN A BLOOD TEST. WE WENT HOME AND HE SLEPT ON A SUMMER DAY WHICH WAS VERY UNLIKE HIM. THAT NIGHT HE PLAYED VOLLEYBALL IN THE POOL FOR 3 HOURS AND THEN WE WENT TO BED. I THOUGHT WHAT EVER IT WAS HE IS FEELING BETTER. THE NEXT MORNING I WAS WOKE BY THE PHONE RINGING AT 7:30 A.M. HIS DOCTOR WAS ON THE PHONE AND ASKED HOW SOON WE COULD GET CHASE TO AKRON CHILDRENS HOSPITAL BECAUSE SHE WAS VERY ALARMED AT HIS BLOOD COUNTS AND THOUGHT HE MAY HAVE LEUKEMIA. I CALLED DAVE AT WORK TO COME HOME AND THEN WOKE EVERYONE UP. WE RUSHED CHASE TO THE HOSPITAL. I CRIED THE WHOLE WAY AND HE KEPT REASSURING ME THAT EVERYTHING WOULD BE OK. THAT DAY ON JULY 3, 2002, STARTED A JOURNEY WITH OUR SON THAT WE WILL FOREVER REMEMBER. HE DEALT WITH ALL THE PAIN AND THE UNFAIRNESS OF A YOUNG BOY HAVING EVERYDAY LIFE TAKEN FROM HIM, LIKE A YOUNG MAN WISE BEYOND HIS YEARS. NEVER ONCE DID HE ASK WHY ME OR WANT US TO SUFFER BECAUSE HE WAS. HE WAS THE EXACT OPPOSITE. HE ALWAYS PROTECTED US AND TOLD US NOT TO WORRY. HE WOULD PLAY WHEN I KNOW HE WASN'T UP TO IT. OUR LIVING ROOM OVERFLOWED WITH GIFTS AND CARDS AND HE WAS TOUCHED BY EACH GIFT. HE WOULD OFTEN SAY, "THAT WAS SO NICE OF THEM" OR "WHAT CAN I DO FOR THEM? " HE WAS DEFINITELY THE GLUE THAT HELD US ALL TOGETHER. WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SO PROUD OF JENNA AND CHASE .BUT IT IS HARD TO EXPLAIN HOW YOU FEEL FOR YOUR CHILD WHEN THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIFE WITH SO MUCH DIGNITY. ONE DAY I REMEMBER I BROKE DOWN CRYING WHEN HE GOT OUT OF THE SHOWER BECAUSE HE WAS SO SKINNY. HE HUGGED ME AND TOLD ME HE WOULD TRY TO EAT MORE AND HE DID. HE TRIED SO HARD TO EAT WHEN I KNOW HE COULD HAVE WENT FOR DAYS WITHOUT EATING. HE ABSOLUTELY ADORED HIS OLDER SISTER, JENNA. HE THOUGHT SHE COULD WALK ON WATER. HE WAS THE BIGGEST SPORTS NUT. IT COMES TO NO SURPRISE HOW MUCH HE LOVED DUKE BASKETBALL. HE HAD TONS OF SPORTS FIGURES THAT HE IDOLIZED, BUT HIS BIGGEST IDOL WAS HIS DAD. DAVE WOULD DROP ANYTHING TO PLAY WITH CHASE. CHASE KNEW IT TOO. EVEN BEFORE CHASE GOT SICK HE WOULD GET UP AND MAKE THESE LIST OF WHAT HE WANTED TO DO FOR THE DAY. (DAVE IS THE MASTER OF LISTS) CHASES LIST WOULD READ; PLAY BASKETBALL, PLAY POOL, PLAY AIR HOCKEY, PLAY UNO, GO TO HARDEES, PLAY BASKETBALL, PLAY PING PONG, PLAY PLAYSTATION…..ETC. OH YEA, AND IF HE MESSED UP WRITING IT HE WOULD HAVE TO REWRITE IT AGAIN TILL HIS “TO DO” LIST WAS PERFECT. DAVE WOULD DO THIS ALL DAY WITH HIM. NOT ONLY DID HE CALL THE SHOTS AT HOME BUT IT BECAME THAT WAY AROUND AKRON CHILDRENS TOO. HIS NURSES KNEW HE WAS ALWAYS UP TO NO GOOD. HE ALWAYS LOVE TO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN. HE WOULD SING WHILE HIS DOCTOR DID HIS SPINAL TAPS AND HARASS HIS NURSES. CHASE IS MISSED MORE TODAY THEN THE DAY HE LEFT US. WE ARE SO PROUD OF HIM. ONE THING THAT GIVES ME SOME SORT OF COMFORT ON MY HARDEST DAYS IS THE FACT THAT WHEN CHASE TOOK HIS LAST BREATH HE HAD THIS SMILE APPEAR ON HIS FACE. DAVE AND I BOTH WITNESSED IT AT THE SAME TIME. WE KNOW THAT GOD WAS HOLDING HIM IN HIS LOVING ARMS AT THAT VERY MOMENT. MISSING YOU FOREVER…….
MOM, DAD AND JENNA XOXOXOX
Words from an Angel
April 10, 1994 - March 12, 2003
I have not turned my back on you,
So there is no need to cry.
I'm watching you from heaven,
Just beyond the morning sky.
I've seen you almost fall apart,
When you could barely stand.
I asked the Lord to comfort you,
And watched him take your hand.
He told me you are in more pain,
Then I could ever be.
He wiped his eyes and swallowed hard,
Then gave your hand to me.
Although you may not feel my touch,
Or see me by your side.
I've whispered that I love you,
While I wiped each tear you cried.
So please try not to ache for me,
We'll meet again one day,
Beyond the dark and stormy sky,
A Rainbow lights the way.

Wednesday, March 12, 2008 11:29 PM CDT WHERE HAS 5 YEARS GONE? THE MEMORIES OF YOU ARE SO FRESH IN MY MIND & HAS NOT FADED WITH TIME. WE MISS YOU SO MUCH!!! IT IS ALWAYS HARD AT THIS TIME OF YEAR & THEN WITH YOUR BIRTHDAY AROUND THE CORNER IT GETS TOUGHER. IT IS STILL HARD TO UNDERSTAND HOW & WHY THIS HAS HAPPENED.
THE TRIPLETS ALL KNOW YOUR NAME NOW. THEY POINT TO YOUR PICTURE & SAY "CHASIE" (SORRY, WHEN THEY GET OLDER WE WILL HAVE THEM CALL YOU CHASER)
DAD & JENNA WENT DOWN TO DUKE & COACH K TOLD YOUR STORY OVER & OVER AGAIN TO PLAYERS, SPORTS ANNOUNCERS & PEOPLE HE MENT AFTER THE GAME. WHEN DAD WAS TELLING ME ABOUT THE WEEKEND I WAS THINKING OF WHEN YOU WERE FIGHTING FOR YOUR LIFE IN INTENSIVE CARE & COACH K WOULD CALL THE HOSPITAL ABOUT EVERY OTHER DAY TO GET A REPORT ON HOW YOU WERE DOING. YOU HAVE LEFT AN IMPACT ON SO MANY PEOPLES LIVES, FROM WELL KNOWN PEOPLE TO MAYBE JUST A BUDDY FROM SCHOOL.
YOU REMAIN SUCH A PART OF US & THAT WILL NEVER CHANGE.
YOU ARE LOVED MORE WITH EACH PASSING DAY,
DAD, MOM, JENNA, DANTAE, DEMI & BREELI
P.S. THE MOTHER OF MULTIPLE CLUB IN CANTON HAS A MEMBER OF THE CLUB THAT HAS A 4 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER BATTELING A BRAIN TUMOR. AFTER EXTENSIVE TREATMENT IT HAS CONTINUED TO GROW.
