Help Matt on his Journey | Medical Expenses - YouCaring.com

Well Mother's Day is coming again, and Debi is still making the treks up to see Matt. Hopefully we will see some changes in the next year so that Matt will be home next year. Don't forget Matt in your prayers and thoughts! Maybe we can make it happen. :)

Happy BIrthday!!

Today is Matt's 30th Birthday! Whoo Hoo Matt, We Love You!!!

Updates

Angie & Danielle went to see Matt and the nurse said that she woke him up to go to physical therapy and he yelled WHAT! at her haha guess he didnt want to be woke up : )
We are working on some fundraisers, we are looking for a room to do the Scrapbook 12 hour crop again, and might be doing another Comedy night going to try and do that when the snow aint flying lol.
Will keep you updated on those items as soon as we can.

Fall is here already!!

Debi, Heather and I went to the Brain Injury Conference a couple of weeks ago and learned so many things even new options for therapy.
Matt has been given goals each month and exceeds them then they will make more. He still isn't communicating and still on feeding tube, He seems to respond to Debi and Heather which is terrific.
He went to camp which was a great treat, he got to go horseback riding (yep that is what I said haha) he got to go on a pontoon boat. His nurses said he had a great time.

Updates

Well looks like we are seeing some things that are a pretty big deal!!! When I seen Matt at Rehab you could tell he was trying to kick the ball, yeah!! I finally got to see some of the progress everyone else keeps telling me about.
They are starting to teach him different ways to communicate ~ index finger means no and thumbs up means yes and he is actually doing it!!!!
Going to see him tomorrow so hopefully I get to see more of it. Still a long road ahead but just the fact that he is starting to be able to let us know that he is aware is a big deal...
Thank you for all the prayers and please keep them coming.

Comedy Night

We want to thank everyone that braved the snow storm the night of the Comedy night benefit. Maybe we will try this one again when it is nicer out. : )
I just got back from vacation in Mexico and heard Matt said Ma while I was gone yeah!!! Going to see him today and will update on him later tonight.
Once again THANK YOU EVERYONE for coming to the Comedy Club.
