Pilot - Let Me Tell You Something 1 (The Walking Dead, S1 E1/E2) 

AYO LETS GO, DAY 1 EPISODE 1

Hi Guys. Is this a rewatch for you? You seem to know spoiler info already. There was no one to care for Rick. The bed was there the whole time. It's been probably a few weeks since the outbreak. When you get to episode 6 I think a actor will mention it's only been 63 days total and by that time Rick has probably been out of the hospital for a little over a 7 days.
