    Brad,

    Josh is doing well, home from the hospital this past Saturday, up and walking around all week, still a little discomfort when he sleeps and I'm weaning him off his meds this weekend. Another 4-5 weeks of rehab and in home school tutoring and he'll be back at HS full time...Figure another 12-20 months for full recovery of his spinal fusion and associated Titanium hardware, so no more motorcycles, no bungee jumping, and no roller coasters for him at all from now on. It will be rough on the first one, but the other two won't bother him at all I'm sure........

    Thanks for asking.

    Bill S.

    That has to be a real relief for you Bill. So happy to hear the surgery went well and that he is on the way back.

    Let Josh know if he doesn't already, that life itself is a precious commodity and that it will provide him with a ride far greater than anything man can build. I am sure he will miss some things, but in the long run, he has so much more to look forward to.

    I pray his recovery is quick and complete.

    Already been down that road, not quite those words, but he got the point and is just fine with it. Smart little 16 year old, knows what it means to have quality of life instead of quantity of toys.
