Monday, August 11th
This is Kimberly's sister, Alichia. Kimberly is having computer problems so is unable to post updates. I will post for her when she sends me updates by text message.
The last text I received was on August 8th. The therapist told Kimberly that one of their goals for Matthew was for him to be sitting on the edge of the mat by the time he left there. Matthew completed that goal early. Goal was also for him to do that with maximal effort, he did it with little effort! Yea, Matthew!
I visited with Matthew on Saturday and Sunday. He was pretty tired on Saturday as he'd had therapy that morning. He slept in his wheelchair during most of our visit. However, on Sunday he was very alert. He did very well, tracking with his eyes and moving his mouth to try and talk to us. Matthew likes it when we hold his hand...he doesn't like to let go!
Jace visited Matthew on Sunday, it was very evident that he knows Jace and was glad to see him! When Jace walked away from him, Matthew moved his head and eyes to try and find him.
Please continue to pray for Matthew and leave posts. I'll relay the messages to Kimberly until she has internet access again.
