Matt is finally home, and couldn't be happier. It was sure a process to actually get from the hospital to the van, and then to the house, and then into the house.... Special thanks to a neighbor who came to the house to help dad lay the ramp, bring everything into the house including the bed and lift, and help get Matt himself into the house. Mom & dad couldn't have done it without him!
It was fairly late when they arrived in Weekes (8pm), but they had started leaving at 12pm!!! But the hospital was super busy, and Matt has a lot of luggage (extra wheelchair, lift, bed, portable suction, ramps, etc...). The van worked a expected - drove well, ate lots of gas, and was a little cold. But it got them home!
I know some friends had hoped to see Matt this evening, but he was just too tired with all the activity from the day. Mom said he's sound asleep right now! Please pray that Matt will stay healthy with no infections or other complications so that he can remain at the house all week. Praise God that Matt is home for as it says in Psalms 9:1 "I will praise You, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works."
