ups is also sending a box his way...my thing doesnt contain water though. haha, if he gets a black car in the mail, you know who its from.
THanks go out to Wazzsup as well.... we received your package, and one of them was lucky enough to go to bed with him last night. Thank you cards are one the way out.
Being a father myself I understand how you feel and know you would trade places with him if God would let you. HEY JOSEPH A BIG "GET WELL" FROM TEXAS AND YOU KNOW SOMETHING IS COMING YOUR WAY SOON!!!
Let's see some pics of him smiling with his new stuff. Haha He will look like E.T. in the stuffed animals. Bunches of toys and him buried in the middle of them. I didn't know what kind of car you drove so I sent him a charger and something else.
Holy shit, I was expecting a few cards..... lets just say you guys are keeping me busy. Ups man, mail man, dhl man, fed ex man, whew! Thank you all for the gifts and cards which keep coming everyday. If you sent a package, you will be getting a Thank you card in the mail shortly. Again, Thanks to all. He's healing up pretty good. He's not walking that great, but we are working on it.
havok - sorry to be getting this thread so late....... i would like to offer up my assistance from a professional aspect though. as my screen name says, i make legs for a living. no, i would rather not have to do that right now for you little guy, but i also do a great deal more. the company i work for is the largest in the country that deals with prosthetic and orthotic needs. if your doctors want to send joesph to a specialist for any kind of bracing, call me!!!! my company has offices in NP Richey and the clinician there is a very good friend!!! hell, i trained his technician, so he owes me!!! hahahaha anyway, if/when the doctors want to send joesph to get some bracing, let me know and i will get you set up!!!! more than likely it will be a custom device and will be made in my lab!!!
I just now saw this.... Great that they got it all out...... Something on the way.... God bless you, Joseph....... We love you, boy... D
trust me, i hope to NEVER have to lend my expertise to any members, but if needed, i will take care of anyone!!! i talked to my wife, who is also a very experienced clinician in the orthotic and prosthetic field (she fits what i make!!!), and she thought the best thing for joesph was something that had total contact pressure, even without standing on it, to make sure the blood flows enough to stimulate complete healing. she saw the picture and said the wound looked very good and that the coloring was excellent for blood flow. pink and red are good, purple and dark colors not good. anyway, if there is anything you might need, or if the doctors start talking about bracing or similar, i can hook you up with whatever you need!!! the company i work for is HANGER P&O....... just let me know and good luck!!!
The first mention of it and I'm calling you. He's had the cast off for 3 days now, and each day he's walking better. I think the muscles in that leg are what's off. He has not used that leg in over 2 months. Joey said, "Daddy the first boot (cast) that the doctor gave me made that boo boo go away, and the second boot is gonna help Jo Jo run really fast". Thats what we told him so that he wouldn't be scared. He's getting better quickly. :yes:
