Mon June 30 Update:

Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes! Great day in Florida.. except for the rain...

And Thank You again for all your support for Joe and Mom/ Dad. I hope to be in town next weekend to visit and help as well.

Whether prayers or financial... We appreciate so much everything you have all done... And I know Joe and Mom/Dad are so thankful for the continued support.

Thank You everyone ... and again... I hope to one day tell you personally how much each of you mean to us!

Fri May 23 Update:

I just got off the phone with my dad. Joes surgery is scheduled for 7:30AM.

They will be cleaning out his arm and putting more medicine in it to help it not get infected. One big blessing is that his doctor is very optimistic about his hand.

We need to keep praying that it keeps doing what it’s doing. That has been one of our main concerns but the Lord keeps answering prayers and I know he’ll continue to answer our prayers.

Class of 94’ thank you so much for praying for my bother. He heard me tell dad that y’all were praying and I know that just makes him feel so loved so thank you once again❤️

To all the friends, family, church members and church families, we love each and every one of you and as long as we keep praying, Joe will keep healing.

Once his surgery is complete I’ll update on here once myself and other brothers get the update first.

Please support Joseph's Critical Recovery

My big brother, Joseph, is, as I write this, in critical surgery to determine if or which arm(s) may be saved. He was in a near-fatal accident Sun May 18.

Joseph has multiple broken ribs, multiple complex breaks in legs/feet, multiple complex breaks in right arm... And a severely damaged left arm.

Our mom has not left his side. And she, and so many other prayer warriors are asking God for his healing mercy.

Joseph will be in intensive care for the foreseeable future, with multiple additional major surgeries and a long on-stie rehab ahead. But he is a fighter, and there is no way he will miss watching the Georgia Bulldogs first game in a few months.

While he fights for his life, I will need to help our parents find a way to prepare his room/bathroom to be handicap accessible.

I am launching this GoFundMe to help with Joseph's medical care and in-home care over the next year, as well as help my parents, as they will be dedicating their lives to caring for Joseph.

Funds raised will be used for Sit-to-Stand Assist medical equipment, adjustable medical bed, handicap/single person shower for roll in and other handicap-outfitting necessities for home.

Joseph has always been the life of the party... Whether country line dancing, playing softball or yelling at the tv watching UGA Football or Braves Baseball.

Please help me support my big brother and help provide him motivation in this life-changing fight.

Thank you so much... And I will certainly provide updates regularly.. and Please keep Joseph in your prayers!

With Love Ben
