Sept. 12

Well I know that it has been awhile since I posted. Things have been great here at home with Matt back. The boys and I are so happy that he is home with us and we are a family again. We thought we were going to have to leave due to the hurricane, but thank God we were not affected by it. We may get some rain and a little wind, but my weather man Matt, does not think we will get much. Matt has been watching the news and keeping track of the storm online. We had OT/PT and Speech come out and evaluate Matt on Tuesday. He will be getting OT/PT 3 times a week and he will get Speech 2 times a week for 2 weeks and that will be all that he needs as far as Speech goes. He will have the OT/PT here at the house for a month, and maybe 2 months if they think it will be needed. I want to tell you the guy who came out to do the OT evaluation was very intense. He had Matt doing all sorts of things, I think even more than the PT guy at the hospital did. He was very good and I think that with his help Matt will recover fast. He said that he wanted to be the one who came out and gave Matt his therapy. I was tired and I only watched. Matt was actually on the floor doing exercises and stretches. This guy wants Matt to start a Pilates class when he gets better. I guess that means that I too will be taking a Pilates class. I hurt just thinking about it!!! Well anyway, I wanted to update everyone and tell you how well Matt is doing at home. We are looking forward to going to church on Sunday. Please continue to pray for him as he starts therapy here at home. We have an appointment in San Antonio next week on Weds. to see the doctors about the AVM, so pray that all goes well with that and we are waiting to get approval for him to see the eye doctor, so keep that in your prayers as well. Thank you all for praying for Matt, you have all been a part of his recovery and his miracle. We love you all and are so thankful for each of you!!!!
