It was an early morning rise for Chase this morning. He was up and leaving at 6:30 am, truck packed and praying that he had not forgotten anything. After all that would be a long drive back to pick it up.
We have received many calls from him updating us with where he is, gas prices and the weather. One of his bags was in the back of the truck. Lucky for him he saw the black rain clouds ahead of him and stopped to put that back inside the truck. All I can say is that he better find a dry cleaners near where he will be living because I am sure those clothes are not going to be "wearable" for those great first impressions he needs to make. LOL
Some prayer requests for him would be to find a decent living location that is not too bad for traveling time to and from the Ronald McDonald's House in which he will be working. Of course he has been looking online, has a few choices, but hasn't made that final decision yet. He wants to be on his own but yet live near enough to Chicago to enjoy the city for a couple of months. Of course safety in travel is a big prayer too. :-)
I was looking around the web today and came across a site for the Lineberger Center in Chapel Hill. It is the new cancer center that opened up last March and the one too that the UNC Baseball team did their Basebald for the Cure challenge. I thought I would leave you with this site and you can browse through, see some different pictures and even a few links from that page to some articles written if you haven't had a chance to view them.
Some kids that we have come to know and be in touch with need your prayers and support too. James, a child that Chase got to know through Friends of Jaclyn is having some difficulties recentlty. Keep him in your prayers. Also, a teenager that sought us out through this blog, Josh Kates, has the same cancer that Chase had and would love some support as well. Click on their names and you can view their blogs as well.
We are all looking forward to hearing from Chase this summer as he is going to be starting up a blog soon to keep us posted of his eventful summer.
Until next time....
