Chase and I, as well as the rest of the family have been blessed with the many opportunities that have come his way. Many think that God is cruel when giving their child a cancer. I am one of the lucky ones that can say that through God, Chase as well as many others have been blessed. Chase has touched many lives in UNC Hospital when he was in as a patient and now even when he is out. Along with this, determintation has become a permanent part of his disposition. With these qualities he has shared them with many scholarship opportunities. He has recently been chosen as a recipient of the
Eve Carson Scholarship that was started last year after her death. You can read more about it
here.
Also, recently we had the nice time of supporting the Ashton Miller fund. Ashton is a friend of Chase's who also has been fighting the battle of a childhood cancer. Her mother, Judy, and I teamed up to help raise money for Childhood Cancer. Unfortunately, there is not much awareness of all the cancers that hit our children and there is no one to advocate for them. So Chase, as well as Judy and I, are trying to do just that. Please read the article about Chase and realize that his passion is for childhood cancer, not just baseball. However, the two may come together someday, somehow.
God is Great,
Judith~mother of Chase
