Prayers for my partner

Jon, Still praying for him and all of his extended family. You have the number bro. Don't be afraid to use it.

Be there for him as you have that is what makes a big difference.
 
Well the doctors finally got the last MS test results back, they were stunned when it came back positive for MS. Josh is slightly relieved still saddened and scared but at east he knows what it is and can go from there. He started treatment tonight and is hoping to be released from the hospital by next Monday or Tuesday. Still unsure if he will ever be back in the field. We have raised a little over 2 thousand dollars to give to him to compensate for the time he's lost at work. I'm going to see him Friday with a few coworkers. I just wanted to say to everyone here that your prayers and thoughts are extremely appreciated and it feels good to have the support of a bunch of guys and gals like all of you:please:

What a relief that it's not cancer, but how scary to know at such a young age he's been diagnosed with MS :( I have a highschool friend that was diagnosed right out of highschool and she's doing well. I know it's a constant struggle to find the balance between living a fulfilling life and coping with the symptoms of MS, but she's done it for over 20 years now and she's a happy person. I wish nothing but the best for your friend and I'm sure he appreciates being surrounded by such amazing people. :thumbsup:
 
Just got back from visiting with josh his speech is 100 times better than what it was when he went in to the hospital, his arm is still kind of weak but he is gaining strength in it. The have him on some kind of steroid and some other things I'm not sure what. But his spirits are def up from my last visit he even told me he has hopes for coming back to work he said it all depends on how he reacts to the drugs. My boss and crew chief went to see him yesterday and gave him the money we all got together for him, he was speechless and for anyone that knows him knows that is a rare sight :lol: he said they are going to keep him over the weekend for observation and he should be able to go home Monday :thumbsup: I think he is just relieved to know what it is and that it isn't a death sentence like he was expecting. I for one am definitely relieved to see him in such high spirits :please:
 
Just thought I'd give an update, josh has been home for the past couple of weeks, he has started his daily regime of shots and has been going to physical therapy twice a week to get strength back in his arm and leg, his speech is much better he told me he has high hopes for coming back to work in the next month or two. He is waiting to see if his doctors clear him for work and then he has to sit down with our boss and see if the boss will clear him to work because the boss is talking liability of him beng in the backof an ambulance with a patient or driving and having a flare up and something happening so we will have to see. But otherwise he is doing very well and trying to get back in the swing of things :thumbsup:
