Last Friday night Josiah was going downstairs to play and he took about 2 steps and fell down the rest of the way. He is always getting hurt but I knew this was different. He was not calming down and he was complaining of neck pain. So we took him to the ER and come to find out he had broken his collar bone! We (including the Dr.) were so surprised. Josiah was doing amazingly well for the amount of pain he must have been in. Please pray for a quick and total healing of his body. I still feel sick every time I think about it. He will have to wear a sling 24/7 (except for baths) for 4 weeks. Haha. No, he has really been doing great with it. The challenging thing for us now is that he is starting to feel better and wanting to resume his normal activities of running, jumping, and wrestling. They prescribed him Tylenol w/Codine which I’ve only had to give him about 3 times. He doesn’t feel much of anything bad with that stuff in his system. The other night he was starring off into space and told me that he was a bulldozer. Then he was saying that the floor was all water. Which are things he would actually say even without the meds but I could tell he was kind of spacey:)
He sure looks pitiful with his little arm in a sling. Here are a couple pics of our not so fun night. Thank you for praying and believing with us for his total healing!
(sorry for the poor quality of the cell phone pic)
but you get the idea










Oh my gosh the poor little guy. We will definitely pray for him and for all of you!! Mason wants to know if Josiah cried hard?? He sure does look cute though even with the sling:)) Well other than that hope everything is okay with you guys,tell the family we said hello and we Miss you all!!
Hey Liz! We miss you and Johnny and the kids! Andrew told my parents about Josiah falling down the stairs and breaking his collarbone, and they told the church during prayer requests on Sunday. So Harvest is praying for you guys and little Josiah too! He’s too cute in his little sling
By the way, maybe I already told you guys this, but I’ve decided that one of our daughters is going to marry Josiah someday
Hehe! Anyway, since I know Chris hasn’t emailed Johnny back yet, here’s my email address: phatkowsezmu@hotmail.com. I’ll be waiting to hear from you
Thanks Jenelle! Mason-Josiah cried pretty hard when it happened but was SO brave at the ER especially with us messing with it before we knew what he’d done to it
We miss you all! Hope all is well with you!!
