Hi, it's Josh. As you probably know, I suffered a brain injury in a car accident on December the 12th, 2010. After 3 weeks in the Paoli Hospital ICU, I was transferred to Bryn Mawr Rehab to begin my recovery. On May 24th, I was discharged to home to finish recovery in the BMR day program. Friends originally set up this blog to help my family more easily communicate with everyone. Please leave a message or comment below (if you choose to) or contact me on Facebook or Gmail. Thanks!

Things continue to move forward. Josh is working
hard in the pool, walking with almost no assistance.
In the gym, he is walking further with minimal assistance.
He is also riding a recumbent bike.
Josh is working in his old college computer science books
and doing really cool stuff on his iPad.
Winter is finally here, 4 inches of snow today.
Mike leaves in the morning for Chicago for a trade show.
The days are getting longer.
Love you all,
The Bonjos

Happy New Year Everyone!
We had a great holiday filled with many emotions;
celebrations of Christmas, a New Year and the life of
Josh, as well as, difficult memories of Josh's accident
brought to the surface by the time of year.
We are so grateful for the second chance we have been given
with Josh. He understands how blessed he is and demonstrates
this through his hard work in therapy. He is standing and walking
with little or no assistance in the pool. We believe his "dry land"
skills are about to make another leap to a higher level.
Josh is also using a very interesting new program at BMR on the Ipad
which tests, tracks and monitors cognitive skills in many
areas. Josh picked it up immediately, of course, and it looks like
the Ipad has become the tool of choice at the rehab center.
We are so thankful for all of our friends, family, co-workers,
and strangers who dropped everything in their lives to be at
our side in our time of need, a year ago. This has been a truly
life changing experience in so many ways.
So now we move ahead in a new year, cheering Josh on, day by day,
on his race to recovery.
We Love You All!
Mike, Darling, Josh and Rose
