Well, we have one more day here. We just can't wait to get home.
Chance got to pick out new braces for his feet and new splints for his arm/hand. I'll give you all one guess as to what colors he picked......yup, you're right. His braces for his feet have yellow pads, black velcro and a camo strap. His day splint is going to be black with yellow velcro and his night splint has yellow and black velcro straps with a Steelers logo in the center.
Tomorrow is the BIG day!! I keep trying to get him to go to sleep and he won't. He is working on keeping his night time splint on his arm so that he gets a sticker for the night. If he keeps it on tonight, he will have met his goal and gets a gift card to Best Buy. This morning, it somehow fell off. Bryan kept checking it all night and it was on as of 5:00 am. When Chance woke up, he woke up Bryan and was upset because his splint wasn't on. So, we gave him the sticker because we felt that he didn't take it off on purpose.
He said alot of goodbyes tonight. It is sad to leave these people and the friends that he has made, but we just can't wait to get back to Perry County.
Chance told Bryan and me that when we get home, we have to go back to our room because alot of people have missed him and they were going to come see him. Since there are going to be so many people coming to see him and he is going to be so busy, we need to be in our room so that there is room for all of his 'people' to sit. And he doesn't want us to get in the way. He is such a funny kid.
We're working on getting him one of those bikes that he was riding so watch out Newport. You may have a new crazy driver in town (or close to it). I have some new pictures that we will put out after we are home. Miss you all.......only one more sleep!! !!
