Josh is Walking!


I have been trying for the last 3 hours to post and it won't let me - but look I did it!

Praises and more praises in Seattle. Josh had an okay night - but is having a fantastic day and making some great strides. He started off this morning with a CAT scan and it came back awesome. Right now it looks like the valve is opening up and he won't need a shunt - but we still have till Monday to know. Keep those prayers rolling, but if no shunt we are on our way home.

Then the physical therapist came and Josh got up and walked out into the hallway. He was awesome and so focused. He then had his speech therapist and he sat down in a chair for the entire time! What a guy he is and doing so well!

Keep on joining us in prayer - our God is an awesome God! We are sending praises upward, please join us!

I am impressed by your willingness to blog so that many who know about and pray for you can remain informed.

Our church is praying for you as am I. I am Andy Lane's father, Andy Lane & Liz Lane/Howe described your helicopter flight and asked us to pray.

We will continue praying. Keep up the great progress and reports Josh! By the way, your struggle to post photos was worth the persistent effort. Photos really help to motivate prayer and encourage those of us who will not travel to Seattle to see you.

In case you get bored sometimes, I thought I would post urls about my interests. The train crash video is a little fun.

Josh,

We haven't met, I worked with your Dad last summer at Chemult. It looks like you have been through some real challenges and are on the way to recovery! Great Job!! Our prayers are with you and your family.
