Charlos Update Nov 16 2025

Los and fam settling in back at home! On behalf of Los and his family — thank you all for the continued prayers and support!   Los continues to make big strides and is working hard towards a fuller recovery each and every day. Los and his family have settled back in south Orange County.  The community rallied and came together to make some last-minute ADA adjustments to their new spot, and friends and neighbors continue to make sure they are comfortable and settling in smoothly. Brooke is hard at work dialing Los in with his new local PT sessions, setting up [...]

Charlos Update Aug 16 2025

Hey everyone! Brooke has been so incredibly grateful for the amount of love and support on this journey thus far.  To take a load off her plate and keep her from feeling overwhelmed we are going to do weekly updates so she doesn’t feel the need to keep up with everyone individually. She is all consumed at Craig and in a great way. Charlos has multiple therapies a day that she and the kids get to participate in. And on top of that she is also trying to entertain two beach kids in a big city. Her sister Lyndsay is [...]

Charlos Update Aug 11 2025

Since Los landed here in Colorado last Thursday, it has been a busy and productive time for him with help of a lot of wonderful new staff and caregivers. Work began first thing Friday morning with getting fit for his custom wheelchair, which he absolutely loves because he can get out of bed, get fresh air, enjoy some sun, and just get moving. Charlos also had physical therapy (PT), and occupational therapy (OT) sessions Friday and seemed to really enjoy those. The team also began the process of ‘trach weaning’ by sizing down his trach tube. We, the family, [...]

Charlos Update Aug 08 2025

Charlos and family have made it to Craig Hospital in Colorado! Los’ sister, Sylvia, accompanied him on the flight with the medical team, while Brooke / Chase / Chloe drove out and got settled in as well. Craig Hospital is a world-renowned rehabilitation hospital that exclusively specializes in neurorehabilitation and research for individuals with spinal cord and brain injuries.  We are all hopeful and excited to see what the Lord has in store for Los in the weeks and months ahead at Craig. Please be praying for continued forward progress as God stitches Los’ brain back together with his [...]

Charlos Update Aug 05 2025

Day 72 Guys, God is good. After weeks and weeks of trying to get the insurance company to accept going to Colorado for the Disorders of Consciousness program at Craig Hospital, today we got a call for acceptance. This means my brother will be on an air ambulance plane within the next 48 hours on his way to one of the best intensive physical therapy centers in the world. This program will take six weeks to six months to finish, but success rates are through the roof, and we couldn't be more stoked. The prayers worked, God answered, and [...]

Beach day break for Los, in between his continued daily physical / occupational / speech therapies!  So great seeing him get his toes in the water again with his family, sharing smiles and laughs!  All of your prayers and donation support has been such a huge part in getting Los to where he is at today, and the Bentleys are so grateful for you all.  There’s still a long road of recovery ahead — with working to get Los walking, talking, paying off hospital bills not covered by insurance, and providing the Bentley fam with groceries and a roof over their head while they cheer on their dad/husband each day.  Thank you for the continued support and prayers — we love you all!! 🙌  More more info on how to keep supporting, and for what’s needed can be found at link in bio, or at  loveforlos.org/how-to-support/ 🙏
Los continues his daily push for recovery!  We are so grateful for this community of family and friends that continue to encourage Los every day.  The progress may be slow, but it is steady and inspiring!  God’s not done with Los’ story — and we’ll continue to cherish these daily victories.  Let’s go, Los!! 🙏💯 #loveforlos @defineptwellness 💪
A reminder, and to also help answer some of the questions we’ve been getting — about how / where to help Charlos and his family via donation support…. 

The best avenue and platform continues to be through the Love For Los Foundation, where you can choose how your donation support is used…  www.loveforlos.org/how-to-support

The Love For Los Foundation has been set up and registered as a recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, and will provide all donors with a tax-deductible receipt. 

So far, with your donation support — we have been able to get Los into specialized rehab + therapy every day of the week (beyond what insurance covers), and help Los & Brooke with their housing rent this year. 

With that being said, there is still a long recovery journey ahead, they are still dealing with ongoing legal battles, and are still strapped with $1m+ hospital bills from his stay in the ICU where he spent months fighting for his life. 

We will all continue to trust in the Lord’s timing and provision, and are so grateful for the daily progression and healing we continue to witness with Los and his recovery journey. 🙏

Charlos, Brooke and their family are so thankful for your continued prayers and support.  We love you all!  And let’s go, Los! 🙏💪
Los, continuing to put in the hours and sweat with Dr Dustin @defineptwellness! 💪  Awesome progress, thanks to your guys’ continued prayers and support 🙏 #loveforlos
