Company and presents

Matt had a really good day, sister Shelley, John and Jonmarie made a quick one day trip up to see him. Shelley brought him some new clothes that are long enough for his long legs. He was happy to see them and beat his sister in a game of Scrabble. He also had company from home which he enjoys, thank you all. He had his cousin Chris for his RN today and there is always lots of teasing going on. Matt has lots of fun with all the staff and is known to give them a hard time and some laughs as well. He is doing so well off the ventilator, that they would really like him to move to rehab as quick as possible to open up an ICU bed, they know it is the best place for him to be. He is looking forward to the Rider game tomorrow, ready for a good game and hopefully a win. The Riders have a look of supporters and a lot riding on them. Go Riders. We will have lots of fun cheering them on. We had snow today so he didn't go outside, but had a great day anyway. We thank God for his blessings on Matt and our family. Isaiah 26:12 All that we have accomplished you have done for us, O Lord.

Hey guys!

Grey Cup here we come. Boy that was a good game. I couldn't believe the number of QB sacks and turnovers in Saskatchewan's favor. Should be a great Grey Cup.

Bet it got pretty noisy in ICU today.

Great to hear that they're ready to move you on up in the world. I saw your Auntie Margaret yesterday and we can't but help be amazed at how quickly you're progressing. And that great smile and attitude that go along with it.

It snowed again here, but I also heard that it snowed up in Saskatoon. I guess winter is here to stay.

Stay strong and keep up the great progress.

With our love and prayers - the Hertz's!

Oh my goodness Matt, I wish I was able to watch the game with you today!! I am sure you were more excited than me.. I was so pumped! Well you be sure to keep wearing your green this week and maybe we could have a Riders party for the Cup?!

See you soon, and keep pushing!
Love you and God Bless..
