I am so glad he is ok, what a precious little boy.❤ I appreciate you making this video, I have heart disease and now diabetes and last year I skipped the the flu shot and ended up with it. I can’t imagine what your family went through, but you have a beautiful, blessed family touched by God and his angels.🙏🏻❤️

What an awful thing for you and your little guy to go through. It doesn’t sound like you’re quite out of the woods. I pray your little boy continues to improve. Seeing him throw that ball has to be one of the best things to see. Thank you for sharing your story with us. Jase has a very special Mom and Dad.

So true for COVID as well. Your actions can affect others at times without you knowing till something like this happens. Thank you for sharing this very important part of your life. Vaccines are so important. Special parent for special kids. Stay Strong. Live is fragile handle with prayer and common sense. God love you.
