This blog will be the official place for Josh's family to communicate with others about his condition. We appreciate all of the love and kindness that has been shown to our family thus far. We are also grateful for all of the prayers and can feel them pulling us along.

First weekend at home
The weekend was busy! Josh had an appointment Saturday morning with the neuro doctor, it lasted until just after 2:30. They had him doing all sorts of tests to see how extensive his brain injuries are. We should get the results back sometime this week, they will determine how long it will be before he can go back to work and drive. I took him to lunch when he was done and by the time we got home he was wiped out. He said his tail bone hurt from sitting to long, he fell asleep not long after. That night we walked next door to the Mowers house,we had a good visit by the fire and had smores. It was good for Josh to take a walk and to have time to visit with great friends. On Sunday we got up and went to church. He asked the Bishop if he could talk for a minute so that he could tell everyone thank you for what they had done for us. The moment he stood up the tears started spilling out of my eyes, I just can't believe he has come so far so fast. He walked all the way up to the podium all by himself, it was good to hear him up there talking, he likes to. It was also good for him to be able to thank everyone. He had a hard time sitting on the bench the rest of the meeting, but he made it. I took him home to rest after and he had a few visitors. Today we got the kids off to school and headed over to the wound clinic. After he wanted to stop at work and say hi, and he didn't say it right off but I knew he wanted to see the video of the accident. Now that he knows what happened he said he didn't want to watch the video again. All I can say is wow! It was really weird watching it, he is blessed to be here. It has been said that angels did surround him, and I know they did, there is no other way he could have survived. Thank you again to everyone who was there and helped him that day, you are some of those angels. Much love, Denise
