This is Josh (Shayla's Husband)

I just wanted to give a quick update.

Lee, Brody, and I met with Jon's Doctor yesterday early afternoon. The doctor said that Jon is doing very well considering. He's been much more stable over the last 2 days and they've been able to control his pain much better. I think there was some confusion over exactly how many ribs Jon has that are broken, I think we all heard a different number. After more x-rays, he has 14 broken ribs. He's doing a lot of sleeping at this point which is great. He is still intubated and will probably remain that way for at least the next few days. The general feeling from the meeting with the doctor is that he/we still have a very long road ahead of us. He's doing much better and everyday brings Jon one little baby step farther towards a full recovery. He also had surgery on his back Sunday to fuse 2 vertebrae together. This will help with the healing in his spine and in his ribs.


We've had several requests to do news interviews but have declined them at this point in time. I'll let Lee explain further, but that being said stories have still been running. I'm inserting hyperlinks to a few of them, watch them for what they're worth.
