Thanks guys. As usual this kid amazes me. His strength and pain tolerance is huge. I have to get these bags unpacked and get busy around here.

Wow Julia! That's incredible! Is this something new? My son has a severe hand deficit, but there doesn't seem to be anything anyone can offer except a gracilis transfer, and Dr. Klebuc said he had "too much" movement for that. What surgeries has Joshua had? How has his hand movement been prior to this? Thanks and congratulations!

Wishing the best for Josh in this recovery period.
I know this was a tough one for all of you. But Josh is a fighter and I know he will get back those hand muscles.

May you have strength in the days ahead.
Is Josh back playing those video games yet?

Wow, Julia and Josh...there is always something new isn't there?! Oh yeh, Scott too, included in my prayers all last week. Josh, what an inspiration you are to all the kids! I just know you will get great results from this surgery too.You all have been in my thoughts all week and I kept checking the boards every day.....

Hope you still have my phone# ,Julia, and can call me when you are all unpacked AND caught up on sleep....would love to meet up before July 12th when my Scott & I are making a quick trip to Philadelphia for 7 days which will pretty much kill July for me especially me catching up from all the time zone changes..I haven't traveled for quite awhile.
Much love to you 3....

Not that I haven't talked to you enough already, but Josh if you are reading along with mom and dad... Welcome home! We've been thinking of you and praying for you everyday since you left and we know that good things are still to come for you!
See you on the 4th!

Love,
Peg, Steve, Joel and Emma

Hey guys! I'm doing pretty good. I'm suprised that I haven't had to take a painkiller since yesterday, and I had to take that one. Thanks for all of the good wishes from everyone. Now... time to play Xbox...
