Wound care does it again! Alrighty folks, Chuck is no longer wearing a regulation, hospital gown. No siree ... he is wearing a shirt made from 99.9% pure silver thread. No, he does not look like a pimp. The shirt looks like an ordinary t-shirt. It's a greenish-brown color. The history of the shirt is very interesting ... it is used primarily in the military. Soldiers wear the shirts under their clothes. There are many reasons why ... the benefits of silver for fighting infection and odor. If a soldier is shot and unable to be treated for days ... the silver serves as an immediate defense against infection! Go to www.x-static.com to read more about the shirt. Amazing!

Darrin, Corey, and Jaime got up at 6:00 this morning. Their goal for the day was to deliver sweet tea from Bill Miller's to Chuck. Thus, they made the 5.5 hour-drive to Dallas . After a brief visit, they loaded back into Darrin's truck for the return trip home ... another mere 5.5 hours. Now, I've been married to Chuck long enough to know ... you don't mess with a good story. So, when the guys turned down my offer of a place to stay for the night, I knew ... this will become the "remember when we drove to Dallas to take Chuck some tea" story. God love them!
