Visiting Josh

As most of you know, Michael's little brother Josh was in a major car wreck last week. We were able to go to Salt Lake all last week to be with family during this difficult time. We are so glad we were able to be with Josh and see him progress. We prepared for the worst, but everyday the news got a little better. We feel so grateful for the out-pour of love, concern, prayers, and generosity; so many people have reached out to the family in small and big ways. Thank you so much. We are all so blessed and can feel your prayers. We appreciate all of you and ask that you continue to pray for Josh as he has a long road ahead of him.

We miss you already. We're glad you had a safe trip home. The picture of Ian in the cockpit is great, you could tell he thought that was so cool. What a kid.
Sounds like Josh is on his way to recovery. Especially after hearing what he did to the doctor today. Too funny.
There's no doubt that the faith and prayers of so many are being answered. Another testament that miricles happen everyday. The Tippet's are so deserving of those miricles. We are so grateful that you married one of their sons.
Talk to you soon. Give the kids hugs and kisses from G & G.

I soooooo remember sitting in that same room at the U of U hospital just waiting and waiting when my dad was in the ICU. It is SOO not fun! Makes my stomach hurt looking at it. We are praying for a full recovery and think of you guys often! Thanks for all the updates!

Thanks for the update. Although it wasn't under the best circumstances, I'm glad you got to see everyone so soon after you left. As usual I was absent and that makes me sad. Can't wait until Christmas??? Hopefully eh?

We are happy to find out that Josh is alive. It was our understanding until now that he was not. Our driver who was in the truck has not been able to go back to work yet, and we are not sure he will. (He to is glad that Josh is recovering) Don't forget to remember our driver and his family as everbody fasts and prays. He too is a husband, father of sons, daughters & grandchildren that need him in their lives. He does not understand why Josh's vehicle came into his lane and why the horrific crashed that followed even happened. His life has been changed forever. He needs healing both physically, mentally, and spiritually. We as our family, pray for our drivers daily and we are glad that God is with us all. I sincerely hope everyone can heal from this devestaton. Our truck and trailers are replacable but the people in our lives are not. Our prayers go out to all involved. J.D.
