Miracles for Micah

03/06/2026

First off, we want to thank each and every one of you for the love and generosity you have shown Micah and our family. We are so grateful. A special thank you to everyone who sent vinyl records, money, and Nintendo Switch games for Micah’s birthday—it meant so much to him. And thank you to “Uncle Keith” for all the random gifts, snacks, and especially the very encouraging notes. Those little things have meant more than you know.

Micah continues to make progress. He has gained more mobility and strength in his right leg and foot, and he is now walking without his brace, which is a huge milestone! We started rehabilitation back up at the beginning of January, and even in this short time we have already seen improvements. His ability to recognize his alphabet has improved, and he is now able to read some words, though not full sentences yet.

We’ve also had some really special moments recently. We surprised Micah by taking him to watch his friends wrestle at the Regional meet. Seeing him laugh and spend time with his friends again reminds us how important those normal moments are for him.

At rehab, they even took Micah fishing as part of his therapy, and he managed to catch a few catfish! 🎣

Just a few weeks ago, Micah was able to visit school for a little while. He spent time with his wrestling team and even participated in team photos. Before the photo, Coach Davis took him to the cafeteria so he could eat lunch with the other students just like he used to. Moments like that mean everything to him—and to us.

Today, March 5, Micah started the second phase of his maintenance chemotherapy. His blood counts look good, and he has even put on some weight, which is great news. We also had an appointment with his eye specialist, and his vision is continuing to improve greatly.

While we were at the eye doctor, I received another piece of great news from Micah’s rehabilitation center. Because of some insurance changes and a new mandate, Micah now has unlimited rehab days for this year instead of the 35-day maximum we originally had. This is an incredible blessing and will allow him to continue getting the therapy he needs.

Thank you all again for continuing to support, encourage, and pray for Micah. We see the progress every day, and we know how far he has come. We are excited to see what the next months will bring.

With love,
Brad, Isa, and Micah

Micah’s Update ❤️🧡

It’s been a bit since our last update, and we wanted to share how things have been going since Micah came home.

We’ve continued outpatient therapy three times a week, and Micah is still pushing through his chemo treatments. We’re on track to finish this phase around the first week of November, and then we’ll begin the maintenance phase around November 24–25, which will last about a year. During that time, we’ll just be checking in at the doctor’s office once a month.

Sleep has been a challenge lately — nights have been restless, and we’re trying different things to help Micah (and us!) get better rest. We’re staying pretty exhausted during the day, but we keep moving forward. Micah walks everywhere now — he hasn’t used his wheelchair at all except when he’s at therapy, which is such a huge step.🏃🏽‍♂️

At home, we’ve had visits from family and friends, and in our free time we love playing with the dogs, listening to music, playing video games, and watching TV together. We’ve even managed a few outings with loved ones for meals and small get-togethers.

One of the sweetest moments this past month — Micah asked to be baptized again on September 21st. 🙌 His faith and determination continue to amaze us. While we’re still navigating some ups and downs with mood, we’re doing our best to stay positive and celebrate every bit of progress.

Right now, speech and memory are our biggest focus areas in therapy, and we know those will take time. Through it all, Micah keeps showing us what true strength looks like.

On a sad note, Micah’s sweet dog, Gizmo, held on long enough to spend one special week with him after he came home. It was almost like Gizmo was waiting for him. We made the difficult decision to let him go peacefully, and while our hearts are broken, we’re so grateful they got that time together.

Thank you all for continuing to love, support, and pray for our family. Every care package, message, visit, and prayer means more than you know. 😊

With love,
Brad, Isa, and Micah

Micah’s Update – 100 Days Later, Our Miracle Boy is Home 💙

We know it’s been a little while since the last update, but we’ve been soaking in every single moment of Micah’s incredible progress. He has been working so hard, and we are so proud to finally share what he’s been up to.

It feels like a lifetime ago that we were in the ICU—and we are beyond thankful to say that just days after our last update, on August 2nd, Micah was moved out of the ICU after nearly 70 days there. He was transferred to the oncology floor with a bigger room (and a big TV!)—a very welcome change.

From there, his team put him straight to work. Micah was getting dressed in his own clothes and working daily with PT. By August 7th, he was already making laps around the floor with his walker! Side steps, squats, donkey kicks, walking—you name it, Micah was tackling it with determination and strength.

On August 15th, we got the news that he would be moving to Baylor Scott & White Rehabilitation (BIR). His incredible PICU team even came to send him off—our gratitude for their attentive care, encouragement, and love cannot be put into words. Once at BIR, Micah didn’t miss a beat. Evaluations began right away, and for the next 15 days, he poured himself into at least 3 hours of therapy each day. He walked on the treadmill, boxed with the exercise ball, and worked with speech therapy. On his last day at BIR, he even walked up and down the stairs in the fire exit!

We have been on this journey for 100 days. We were told Micah might never wake up, and if he did, that his quality of life would be minimal. Today, Micah is a living, breathing, walking miracle. 💙

This morning, he was up early, dressed, had breakfast, and anxiously waited for the discharge papers. At 9 AM, he rolled out of BIR with both dimples showing, grinning ear to ear, because he was finally going home. Brad worked so hard to transform Micah’s bedroom and bathroom into an accessible space—and Micah was thrilled to see his new setup.

Micah’s gait is getting stronger every day, and his balance is improving. His speech continues to progress—though it can still be difficult to get all of his words out, therapy and time are on his side. His blood counts are looking amazing, and his latest lumbar puncture came back all clear. He will continue this round of chemo, with another treatment scheduled for September 16th.

So what’s next? Micah will begin his next chapter at Pate’s Day Neuro Rehabilitation program in Anna. We are excited to see what else he will accomplish in this next phase.

From the bottom of our hearts—thank you for continuing to walk with us through every high and low. Your prayers, encouragement, and love are a huge part of this journey. Micah is truly a miracle in motion. 💛

With love,
Brad, Isa, and Micah
