News Story

Here are a couple of links about the news story on Joshua and on the project to renovate his home in order to make it wheelchair accessible. He is currently at Walter Reed Medical Center and he hopes to make it home after he goes through the medical board process, which will medically discharge him from the military.The medical board process usually takes anywhere from eight months to a year.

Media interviews with Josh

Last night was my sister's "Senior Night" for softball at Radford University. The entire family went down to Radford to watch the game including Josh. Here is a link to an article written by the Roanoke Times that includes the details. http://www.roanoke.com/news/roanoke/wb/243391.

There were also video interviews with a couple of local news channels as well as ESPN U. ESPN U will be broadcasting the interview with Josh and my parents during my sister's game on April 25th. I am still waiting to get a link to other local news channels that interviewed Josh. So stay posted...

Update on Josh

Josh is doing well. He has certainly come a long way since the beginning. This Sunday, we were able to enjoy a nice Easter dinner with the family and some close friends of the family (the Hills, Brian, and Kristyn) at the Fisher house in Richmond.

Josh is rock'n the power chair. He is able to use both of his hands to maneuver around. This is different from before, because now he is using a chair that looks more like a manual chair than an electrical chair. As far as his health, he is stable. Josh has had nothing in terms of surgeries or injuries.
