Yeah Chris! Wonderful news! We can't get enough of that around here. Finally the worst part of this ordeal is now behind and the rest is up to Chris. I know he will kick butt and be back to his old self in no time.

Sending hugs to Chris' amazing mom!

That is great news!!!!  It's such a wonderful feeling to have the doctors tell you everything went well and he is on to recovery.
 
Now where does he go from here?  Does he do any rehab?  I know you said he was up and walking around after the first surgery but I wondered was he using any help (walker, cane) and how was it going before this last surgery?  Has he had any other effects from the tumor/surgery?  I've keep hearing, "she is young and we bounce back quickly", as I'm sure will be the case with Chris.  I'll be looking forward to hearing more about the details and his progress.

Chris and your family are in our thoughts and prayers......Michelle

How is Chelsey doing these days.  Been awhile since the last post.  Just prior to the start of this thread i mentioned to Chet that it's be so good to hear a update from Chris and Chelsey and Taylor
I think everyone on this forum has been touched by the strength of spirit theses young people have shown.

Please keep us updated and know that there's a special place in our hearts and on this forum for these young people.

So glad to hear about Chris and looking for further updates on Chelsey and Chris.  They have been in my thoughts a lot and I've told my friends about these kids and the unexpected journey they have had to take.  I only wish them the very best and hope their recovery is quick and speedy.
