Chuck has decided to get another j-peg. He gave it all he had ... tried to eat, but just could not do it. Please pray that the trip to big Baylor and the surgery do not cause damage to his wounds. Pray, pray, pray! The surgery will take place either Monday or Tuesday.

Chuck's lungs are doing great. He gets to stay off the ventilator this weekend. He'll get a new blood gas on Monday. If it looks good (not too much carbon dioxide) then he may not have to go back on the ventilator!
