Checking in

   Josh is scheduled for his first injection in the spinal canal today. The nurse just came in and put an iv in his hand and is giving him fluids right now. They say stem cells love fluids. He is supposed to get the injection around 2:30 pm. The whole procedure is supposed to only take around 15 or 20 minutes. When they bring him back, he’ll have to lay flat of his back for 6 hours. He can slowly roll over on his sides, but he is not supposed to raise his head up. I guess it has to do with keeping the spine straight.                                          

   Sorry it took me so long to get some pictures on here. I still haven’t figured it out 100% but I’m getting there. I appreciate everyone’s comments. It’s nice to here from everyone back home. Mom says hi to all her customers. She misses all her people from the rest. We are already home sick. We are slowly getting more used to things here. Everyone says it’s hard the first week. We love and miss everyone. Please pray for Josh that his treatment will go well. Thank you…

Walking the streets of China

Josh at the park
