Our thoughts are with Chanse, my nephew.

They say it comes in three's. Jody's son, Chanse has come down with some sort of illness. The Doctors have not been able to pin point it yet. He has had numerous test done. We are anxiously waiting for the tests to come back, it's suppose to be today. It started out with sore ankles and some swelling. The illness has spread very quickly and aggressively through out his body. The swelling is horrible, it has effected a lot of joints and especially joints that have had previous injury. His hand is so swollen he can not bend his fingers, Jody is very concerned his hand will maintain circulation. He is unable to hold up his arms or walk on his foot. His blood count in dropping every day and his excedrate is multiplying his sugar is down to 67 and is peeing out whole white blood cells. He is in horrible pain, and is unable to get much rest at night. He has had two Lupus tests done. One came back positive and the other negative. We are waiting for a Romatic Fever test to come back, today hopefully. He has had tests done on his heart, no damage!!! If the tests come back positive for Romatic Fever we will be celebrating. I know Romatic Fever is not good to have but the alternative is so much worse. They are pretreating him with Heavy Duty Antibiotic and 2,500 mg of Asprin. Say a prayer for Chanse! I will keep the family posted.
