“Josie spiked a high temperature,” dad Jim Bob Duggar said. “She had a seizure and it lasted for a long time.”
The Duggar parents were out of the country in El Salvador and Jim Bob expressed their extreme emotions: “There is nothing to do and we feel totally helpless.”
Michelle recounted how she felt when she heard the news that Josie’s older sister Jill had taken her to the hospital. “I was shocked and I was in tears,” she said.
She recounts that she prayed over the phone to her little daughter, saying: “Father, we ask that you would give doctors wisdom to find a cure for little Josie.”

I was actually shocked that Michelle was able to pry herself away from "precious little Josie" and leave her. I feel especially bad for Jordyn (one up from Josie)...she was still a baby and really lost out on having her mom. It shows!!

I hope this family realizes it's time to end the baby making...as mother of a 32 weeker who is now a healthy 2 1/2 yr old I hope they finally "get it" that this poor baby is not well.

Poor little Josie! I watch the show all the time and they seem like the nicest, kindest family ever. From what I've seen they are fantastic parents and all the children are happy and well cared for. I admire them.

Jim-Bob felt that Josie was healthy
and stable otherwise they would
never have left the country..and
the nerve of some of you to say
they're "money hungry"!...

all work together to care of one
another, that's how it SHOULD be!..
those older kids aren't slobs
mooching off their parents not
contributing anything..they take
care of the house and younger
kids all while learning valuable
life lessons...
