We are so blessed! The outpouring of love, support, prayer, and empathy has been humbling. You have completely overwhelmed us with your kindness.

I am home this week, with the hope of returning as soon as is "respectable." How many days at work is enough? I'm afraid they will give away my cubicle if I'm not careful! That would be terrible, as I am surrounded by the coolest people. As far as work goes, I will never be able to repay my colleagues. They have been so gracious concerning my absence...covering my workload, helping me to stay afloat!

Stacie, Mom, Dad, and Christy are taking care of Chuck while I am at home. It sounds like today was a good day. The goal right now is to get off the ventilator, and to heal. Pray for Chuck's physical, mental, and spiritual health.
