I'm back home with Chuck ... by home I mean "with Chuck." Our home is now Baylor Specialty. He looks fantastic! His spirits seem to have lifted and all is well with the world.
He is still wearing his "military armor." He's been wearing it for months now. This is great because it cuts down on infection and helps with healing. Currently, the plan is to just watch his back. The skin is too fragile to do the wound vac yet ... it could cause more damage than good.
His nutrition is better. His breathing is excellent. He is wearing the red cap over his trache 24 hours a day now. Yippee! Praise God ... praise God ... praise God.
