New bed, new life. Previously Chuck was like a turtle on his back. Now he can push a button to sit up in bed. The stability of the bed allows him to reach for his tray ... to reach for anything he may need. Before Chuck was completely dependent upon the kindness of others.

His wound still looks good. It will be watched closely these next few days .... Issues may arise. Then again, they may not! Please pray Chuck's wound remains stable.
