Things are falling into place at Stanford, this is probably the answer I have been searching for! If so, we'll be around Palo Alto for quite some time. We'll definetly get these crazy kids together and have some chat time!
Josh can run circles around Owen and Owen will do the buttscoot around Josh!
We have created this blog to tell Joshua's story. Josh was born in 2007 with a congenital heart defect, Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS - only half of his heart developed) & has undergone 3 open heart surgeries, pacemaker placement as well as surgery to repair his paralyzed diaphragm. He had a very rough beginning, and has hit some bumps along the way but amazes us every day with his ability to live a very active life. Follow us as we try to keep up with him!
