Now that SUCKS! I hope he comes through okay! We'll be keeping our fingers crossed and wishing him well from So'eastern Mass., This build has certainly had it's share of setbacks! Man I hope you get good news real soon!

Sorry to hear about the set back and want to offer best hopes for Josh---evidently he was giving it way over 100% to make the show---

And happy birthday to you

Life sure has it's ways of throwing us unexpected curves, doesn't it? Sorry to hear about his seizure, and hope he recovers ok. I know it is disappointing, but there wil lbe other shows. The important thing is that he is ok.

One of my customers had a project held up due to a "hired gun" developing brain cancer. The customer was kind enough to stop the project for a while to see if he was going to recover. He is still recovering, but the project eventually moved on to another craftsman.

I'm not suggesting that, but it was a nice gesture. Having said that... I think I'll ask around to see how he is doing.

He looked like a comparitively young man. Hope he recovers for his own sake. We just don't get any guarantees.

John,
Sorry to hear of the setback. Messages like that put things in perspective. Hope Josh has a quick and low impact recovery. Like others said, there are other shows to make. Happy Birthday!!

Sorry to hear about Josh, and hope it's something he recovers quickly from.

I hope the set back doesn't drag on too long.

Hope he is alright...

Had a buddy that used to get them, he would flounder around on the floor like a fish out of water and was relativly fine afterwards, I guess choking is the primary concern...sounds like he should be fine as long as whatever caused it is not chemical work related....some people just have them, scary stuff to see.

My dog has them all the time it freaks me out, but she appears fine the next day, I guess it really takes alot out of people and animals when this happens... like running a marathon.

Hope he recovers well and nothing major caused it.....

Good news and bad news .......... I misunderstood the guy yesterday .......... Josh did not have the seizure, it was his son ........ the youngster is still in Brenner Children's Hospital ......... so far the tests have not shown any reason for the episode ............. it is so rough on children as they don't understand what is happening to them

The car is totally secondary to getting this youngster taken care of

Like you say that is bittersweet news - it is never good to hear of a kiddo having medical issues, and most every parent would rather carry that load themselves and spare the child having to suffer. I'm sure Josh will appreciate your attitude on the car vs his son.

Some children have convulsions when they have a fever, it has something to do with the immature inabity to handle it. They are very scary when they have them, and every time they have a temperature you worry.

Sounds maybe like what his Son had.

Hey John so sorry to hear about Josh's little fella in hospital and I feel your pain for not making the show but would like to thank you for your compassion that you are showing Josh and his family,sadly something that is missing in this world we live in now.
Again have a need birthday.
