Update 4/1/23

I found where to create updates!
So now is my chance to say THANK YOU for your generous donations.
From Joshua's community, that stretches across the USA to the UK and even Poland, to the friends of family members that don't even know Joshua personally, you all came together to show support, love and compassion through well wishes and donations. $2800 was donated in addition to the donations listed here. Thank you.

We have used funds so far for medical expenses and living expenses. When Joshua was discharged without having to go to rehab, we had to come up with a place for him to live on short notice. Your donations made that possible.

If you've been following Joshua's Caring Bridge site, you'll know that he had two brain surgeries and spent all of February in the hospital, and was discharged on March 6th. He is now going to outpatient physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech/cognition therapy in nearby Viroqua. He is able to live independently, do simple household chores, but not yet able to drive. He continues to have follow up appointments with a number of specialties in Madison, a 2 hour one-way trip for us.

Joshua's goal is to be able to return to his work as a Eurythmy teacher in the fall. Until then, your donations are making it possible for him to pay his living expenses and other medical-related expenses. THANK YOU.

We will continue to post on the Caring Bridge site, right now that's about once a week. https://www.caringbridge.org/visit/joshuaecklund

Here's a photo of Joshua having a celebratory breakfast on his first full day out of the hospital.
