Chuck is slowing getting used to the tube feedings. Temporarily, his oral intake has all but stopped. The tube feedings make him feel full, so we are taking it slowly. With the tube feedings going 24 hours a day, he is getting right at 1000 calories. Thus, he still needs to eat. He takes a couple of bites of food every two to three hours. Hopefully, his body will adjust soon and he'll be able to eat better.

The plan with the wound is to get as much nutrition into Chuck as possible while we "watch" the wound. His skin is too fragile right now to do much with. Pray for healing. Pray God knits Chuck's back together and closes that wound.

Lungs are super duper! We are so thankful.
