Support the Joscelyn Family on Their Long Road to Recovery
First, thank you for the incredible outpouring of love and support during this unimaginable time. As many of you know, Joshua was shot multiple times by a neighbor and remains in critical condition. He has undergone multiple surgeries, with one of the bullets impacting his spine, and there are still many unknowns ahead.
We are now transitioning to this SupportNow registry because it allows us to share updates, receive both financial and practical help, and—most importantly—keep more of your support directly in our hands.
As the situation unfolds, our needs are becoming clearer:
🚐 Accessible Van – Estimated at $50,000, plus $12,000–$14,000 for necessary wheelchair modifications
🏥 Second Opinion for Surgery – Out-of-pocket expenses for bullet removal consult and travel
🏠 Home Renovations – Adapting our home for full wheelchair accessibility
💸 Transportation – Without a van, rides are $400 each way for appointments
💪 Ongoing Therapy & Support – Joshua has a long road ahead with therapies and daily care needs

➡️ The van is our most urgent need. Without it, every trip is a financial hurdle. Your support in getting us mobile again is truly life-changing.
Felicia—Joshua’s loving wife—will be posting regular updates and sharing moments from this journey here. We ask you to please follow our registry, share it with others, and if you're able, stand beside us in this long road to recovery.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for loving our family through this. We know this is just the beginning, but with your support, we are not walking it alone. 💙
