Joshua - Update

Here is an update on what is going on with Joshua.

We went back to the cardiologist to get the test results. Here is what they are saying:

1. Severe Lung Disease
2. Severe Secondary Pulmonary Hypertension
3. Chronic Obstructive Asthma

They basically said he has the lungs of a 60 year old man with emphysema.

He still has really bad varicose veins in his legs but they are not going to address these until his lungs are stable.

Right now we are going for more testing and labs as well as being referred to a pulmonologist. They will be able to really get through the nuts and bolts of this. We really don't know what the treatment or plan is for now until we see the pulmonologist.

For right now, he is on NO activity. Nothing. Running, PE, riding his bike, etc.

Thank you for your prayers. Please pray for wisdom for the doctors and for Josh's anxiety over all this.

Please also be praying for my friend whose newborn baby is in critical condition in the NICU and on life support.
