This is Joshua.

He is eight years old (but will be nine next month!)

He has many special needs – like Isaac does – and he is Isaac's virtual online buddy.

Josh's mom and dad are missionaries in Japan.  He and his sisters were adopted there.

He does therapy every week.  Here he is back during the summer, enjoying some PT in the pool!

Josh is still very sick. 

One of the medications that he takes to control his seizures has evidently caused his blood to stop making blood cells and platelets correctly.

He has been in the hospital since last Tuesday.

He is feeling better, but his labwork shows that his body is still not producing the blood cells as it should.

Please continue to pray for Joshua in Japan!

We know that he is in God's hands, and we are trusting for complete healing for him.

Thanks for praying with me,

Alesha
