Chuck Colson showing signs toward recovery

Prison Fellowship founder Chuck Colson remains in critical condition following surgery on the surface of his brain but has made “slow” yet “encouraging” progress toward recovery, according to a statement from his ministry. Colson has been hospitalized since Friday, March 30, when his speech became slurred during a conference. Doctors performed surgery the next morning, removing a pool of clotted blood from the surface of his brain. Over the Easter weekend, Colson “hit some important milestones,” the April 10 statement said.
