Please pray



I'm not sure if anyone reads this blog besides my family, but I thought if it means one other person is praying then GREAT!!!

My best friends husband was in a really bad work related accident on Thursday Aug 27. Josh works construction and fell 20 feet, landing in the push up position breaking both wrist. He had surgery on his right wrist on Friday and now has plates and pins in it. His left wrist is in a splint, he should be able to wear a removable brace on that wrist.

When he fell he hit his face, smashing his nose and eye sockets. He is having reconstruction surgery on his face tomorrow. The surgery will take 5 hours. They are taking bone from his skull to reconstructed his nose. They will be going in through his bottom eyelids and the roof of his mouth to reconstruct everything.

He is very lucky to be alive, this whole thing could be much worse. Right now we are counting our blessings for how lucky he was but also praying that God will be with all the Dr's and nurses that work on Josh. Please also pray for Natalie while Josh is having surgery, pray that she feels calm during all of this.

Natalie and I have been friends since first grade and I hate seeing her go through this with Josh, they haven't even celebrated there first wedding anniversary yet. These two are the greatest, most caring, would drop everything in one minute to help you couple. I love them so much and can't wait for a full recovery for Josh, and who knows maybe he will come out of surgery tomorrow looking like Matthew McConaughey, hey girls can dream, right?!?!

We love you Natalie and Josh
