Thursday December 23rd


Josh had another good night after an eventful day.
The physical therapists had Josh sitting on the
edge of his bed (with their support). Twice
yesterday and once this morning, Josh opened
his eyes half way and blinked several times.




This is a small step on the long road, but a huge leap in terms of a daily gain.

Josh's temperature is down this morning, so he is fighting off the infection.

Josh's sedatives will be reduced again by 25% this morning.

There are some low level clouds tinted pink by the sunrise, floating slowly past Josh's window,and the just full moon is still shining. Hopefully a beautiful start to another good day for Josh.

  12. It's great to hear of Josh's signs of life! He is prescious spirit in a hurt body with a host of loved ones keeping him in their hearts and prayers. We must trust The Great Spirit in these times of trial and pain. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
