UPDATE ON JOSH -

Josh had a stroke last weekend - not good news - at all. An MR scan was able to detect the source/cause of the stroke but unable to assess the extent of the damage caused. While the posterior fossa syndrome persists, it will be difficult to make this assessment since Josh is unable to communicate. Given the area affected, it is likely that Josh's vision / image interpretation processing may be affected. Josh is still lost in a dark world that has become even more scary - it may be several weeks before he emerges.


Please continue to keep Josh in your prayers

Thanks for the update,sad as it is. I will continue praying for complete recovery for Josh and peace for his family.

I also pray that despite what we on the outside see,or do not see,that God has provided a light within Josh that gives comfort to him until God's plan is accomplished.

Oh, that is sad news.

Still praying for Josh and his family, that God will work his miracle on this boy.

Update on Josh...

Josh was sent home for a few days this past weekend. He has shown slight improvement...and has spoken a few words. He has a long way to go still...

Please pass this prayer request on...and keep Josh in your prayers.

Thanks everyone :)

Praise God for the improvement and for allowing Josh to go home.

Father, we thank You that You are at work in this little child's life. We praise You for Your faithfulness and we continue believing in Your healing. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Please see Post #69. Thank you for continuing to pray for this little guy.

I will certainly offer a prayer for this poor little boy, his medical team and his family. May God the Healer bring this little boy back to complete health, and ease the discomfort he is now experiencing.

Father, we praise You that there has been some recovery for little Josh ... we again place him before You, Lord, and covet full health for him and reassurance for his aching family. Lord, the hearts of those who love him so are grieved at his suffering ... may the mercy that is Yours fall upon Josh in full measure, that he might live and grow and serve, to Your honor and glory ... in the name of Jesus, Amen ...

I've just read tonight about Josh and want you to know I will be praying for Josh. We have just been through similar circumstances with my 3 1/2 yr. old grandson and know how devastating it is. All the prayers helped us and I pray they give you comfort at this time of need. May God protect Josh and look after his whole family. Love, Shandonbelle (Nana)

My heart breaks for you in this misery - my prayers are for Josh and you and the family...love and positive thoughts to all of you from Kansas.
