August 1 Matt's Update
I wanted to update what is going on. Matt is on an acute care floor at this time. They are trying to get his intestines moving and keep his stomach from getting bloated. The doctors are also re-hydrating him and giving him nutrition through his IV to help get his strength back. They are going to try several different things to make sure that this problem doesn't happen anymore. In the next day or so they will insert a tube into his stomach (PEG) that they will use to feed him and then eventually when he is recovered enough and eating on his own they will remove it. This is just so that they can get the NG tube out of his nose. He is doing well and I have been reading him all of the cards, and emails that you all are sending. Keep praying and we are watching with AWE at how God is working. In our everyday lives we do not get to see miracles, but I am sitting here day in and day out watching as our God is doing miracles everyday. Please know that we love you all and are very thankful for all your prayers and love for our family. Keep praying and I will keep you updated.

Thanks for the update. This is a very good idea. Donna, you are so right that you are sitting next to a miracle as it happens. I know it must be very tough on you. Just know that we love you and Matt and more importantly, God loves you all. Hang in there things will get better. Ronnie & Mary
Donna, this is great! We'll visit it often so we can pray specifically. God rocks like a hurricane!
