    Josh, get well quick, my friend.

    Re: urgent request for Prayers

    AS of right now hes at the local hospital in St. Ignace, Michigan.  They are trying to transfer him to U of Michigan hospital but acccording to Diana, weather has all the helicopters grounded.  He has been placed on a ventilator to help with breathing (I dummied it down a bit from Diana's nurse speak)  I'll post more updates as I can.
    She says thank you for any and all prayers!

    Prayers that he has a full and complete recovery.

    If multiple things can go wrong, the one that will go wrong will be the one that causes the most damage.

    Re: urgent request for Prayers

    Update on Josh
    He was transferred via air to Spectrum Grand Rapids Hospital. He is on ECMO and holding his own but it's early days. They're going to keep him sedated for at least 2 to 3 days not gonna wake him up at all and let his lungs rest on this machine… He's still requiring significant medication support, but they are trying to bring it down a little bit at a time because the machine is helping oxygenate and helping his blood pressure and his breathing… I'll let you know more when I know more

    Terry,
    Are you close enough to get his family some cash?  I’d like to donate a bit for takeout / hotel / whatever other costs they are accruing while he is recovering.

    No I'm about 6 hours away.  I'm not sure they would have a way to get donations.  I'll check with Diana and see

    Appreciate you checking in with her.  Post up or PM what you find out.
