January 26, 2012

First and foremost I want to get our wonderful exciting news out first:  Josh is still cancer free!!! He had his follow up PETscan on Monday and we found out yesterday that he is still all clear!  We are beyond overjoyed, we definitely had a good feeling going into this one because he has been feeling so good and improving everyday.  He has been discharged from physical/occupational therapy because he has gotten most of his strength back.  The main problems (although they are minor compared to what he's been through) he is experiencing are the changes in his nerves in and around the surgery sight, and his stomach muscles are still trying to come back completely.  Other than that, he has been feeling really well and has started to accept his second chance at life and pursuing his dreams.  He has started Real Estate school from home and has been going to a lot of seminars and business classes on the weekends.  He is truely a changed man and is striving for new and wonderful things not only for himself but for us as well.  As you all know our bundle of joy will be here soon and we are sooo excited to meet him.  I am due February 23rd and we have decided to call him Jack, Josh has always loved his grandfather's name and now we get to honor him in such an amazing way.  We are so blessed and so thankful for all the wonderful changes in our life, what a rollercoaster!  Thank you all again for all the prayers, support, and most of all love!  We hope you all had a wonderful end to 2011 and are having an amazing 2012 so far, we sure are!

With all our Love,
Joshua, Kalyn, and Embyr
