Weds. January 5th, 2011


Josh got settled into Bryn Mawr Rehab yesterday.
They shaved and showered him and he looks great.
They removed all of his IVs. They will begin to
reduce the size of and then wean him from the
breathing tube within a week or so. He looks very comfortable.

Starting this morning, each department is evaluating
Josh to determine his specific needs. Then a rehab
program will be mapped out. Josh will be working
rigorously all day, every day of the week.

He is in a nice 2 bed room with a great view of the trees.
Currently, he does not have a roommate. The Brain Injury
Unit is very large and spacious. Everything Josh needs
is self contained. Due to the nature of the injuries,
there is not open access to this area of the hospital.

The next 2 weeks are very important for Josh. Please
keep him in your thoughts and prayers and we will keep
you up to date.

Love,
The Bonjos

  2. Thanks all for the update. Rest assured that the BI team will formulate a plan of care specific to Josh's needs. You have placed him in very capable hands. Thinking of you all today and everyday.
