Chris and Amy have had a long week. Much preparation has gone into the decision for Chris to have a procedure done to implant a feeding tube. The surgery will be Thursday. He will have a short stay in the hospital to make sure everything is okay and then he will be on his way home. The feeding tube will not be used right now; it will be put in place for when it is needed in the future.

This month has been exciting and busy for the Stone Family. Christopher traveled to Storyland with Auntie Holly, Uncle Scott, and Lilly. On their return home they made a short stop at Lake Winnipesaukee, to visit the vacationing Thibaudeau’s. Amy and Chris also hosted a Stone Family reunion, where everyone was able to get together and share a great day. Amy was also able to get away with her sisters for an evening of Toby Keith and Trace Adkins. In the upcoming weeks the Stone Family is planning for a trip up to the cabin, to spend some quality time up at Lake Ossipee.

On another note a CNA has been hired 5 days a week from 1 – 6pm. She will offer some much needed support in the hours before Amy gets home from work.
And as always, please include Chris and Amy in your prayers.

Chris and Amy had a nice 4th of July, Amy and Little Christopher came down on the 3rd and attended the carnival and the fireworks and little Christopher could not have enjoyed himself more. They had a quiet July 4th at home with visits from family members throughout the weekend.

Chris recently went to the doctors and got some relatively good news. His breathing capacity has stabilized; it has remained the same from the last visit. Another positive thing was the article in the Warren Times. They featured a story on the Stone Family and the events that will be coming up in September. So everyone should make sure they grab a copy.

Adaptations to their home have recently been completed, making Chris’ living conditions more comfortable. It has also been recommended that Chris no longer stay by himself. The task of setting up a schedule to facilitate this is in the process. If you would like to help out in anyway, please contact us.

As always, the family looks forward to visitors because each day it gets more difficult for Chris to leave the house. Amy and Chris would love to see friends and family whenever they can. So please feel free to visit.

Please always remember to keep the Stone’s in your prayers, as they make their way through these difficult times.
