Help for Chase... Trouble in Paradise

Donation protected
Hello everyone,

I'm Amber Britner. My wife, Dawn and I are working to get our son, Chase Hild, the medical care he needs after contracting Japanese Encephalitis while visiting in the Philippines. Please do not delay funds! The generous donations of our friends and family are intended by them to help us with his treatment, return to the states and recovery. The donations have gone, and will continue to go, to the payment of the multiple hospitals, doctors, specialists, procedures, labs and medications he needs to fully overcome this life threatening brain virus. Upon hearing of Chase’s illness, Dawn immediately and flew to the Philippines to facilitate Chase's transfer to a major hospital in Manila, and stayed with him 24/7 for 13 days to make sure he obtained the care he needed. The funds that were donated early in this campaign were sent to her in the Philippines to pay for the over $16,000 in medical and return flight expenses to get him back to the US. Chase has stayed with us in our home upon returning to the states, only 1 week ago. As we continue to follow up with infectious disease and neurologist specialists here, the donations to this campaign will continue to offset the enormous financial burden of his continued medical care, as Chase has no medical insurance. Thank you for taking a moment to read about this difficult situation.

Chase came to the Philippines for a visit after another successful summer with VIVINT.   He had the TIME of his LIFE!  ....But.....  As he was leaving he started to spike a fever and became more and more sick...  

We took him to the local hospital and he left after not finding relief...  His headaches were excruciating and fever super high, then gone... then back again...    At 3:30am this past Wednesday morning, he couldn't take anymore and went back to the local hospital, who transferred him via ambulance to Calapan (MMG HOSPITAL)...  After only a couple days there, it was CLEAR that whatever was going on was BEYOND their scope to handle...    His mom, Dawn, flew in from the US to make sure everything was expedited immediately...

Upon arrival she KNEW she HAD TO MOVE HIM IMMEDIATELY...  With the possibility of a brain infection, there was NO TIME to PROCRASTINATE...  Although exhausted from the trip, Dawn went into action IMMEDIATELY and made sure her son she loves so dearly was getting the best care possible as SOON as possible.  In God's way, he had apparently begun to direct the course during the flight here... Dawn sat next to a doctor from Manila who recommended a good hospital.  

He's now been safely transported, but still nothing conclusive has been determined...  And all the while the bill keeps adding up (as you're all aware)...   We're reaching out ASKING for your PRAYERS and SUPPORT in this matter so NEAR and DEAR to our HEARTS...  WE LOVE CHASE and it's VERY difficult to see him like this... But we're TRUSTING THE LORD in this matter that EVERY NEED IS MET and that CHASE WILL BE HOME SAFE AND HEALED QUICKLY...  

We've included a bunch of pictures which speak VOLUMES by themselves.... WE WISH TO THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR LOVE, PRAYERS AND FINANCIAL SUPPORT IN THIS MATTER!!!  THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!
