Are You Married?

IMG_0819

The sedation doctor bent over the bed to peer into Chase’s mouth and while he complied with an open mouth, the doctor made conversation: “So, are you married?  Do you have a job?”, to which Chase giggled and exclaimed “Ew, gross, no!” to the first, and “Yes, my job is to make my bed and clean my room.” to the second – and oh, how I wish I had that work promise in writing.

No MRI news to date, and none expected at the moment, but a great answer to prayer in this moment is that Chase did very well under sedation and that the procedure itself went well.

It will take anywhere from a few hours to a few days for the full effect of the sedation drugs to wear off and in the meantime, somewhat sedated Chase is making things interesting.  He’s unsteady on his feet and when I tell him to turn left and he slowly and deliberately responds: “No Mom, I’m going to turn left.”  🙂

He was so proud of himself for doing well with the scan as well as the needle in his arm for labs and IV fluids.  We are so thankful for the good day even as we continue to wait under the shadow of unknown results.

Thank you again for walking this road with us…

Moment by moment.
