I just spoke with my Grandmother...and Matthew is already back home! He is doing really good. They did a CT scan today and said the ventricles were filled up the way they should and his brain has shifted back to where it should be! My Grandmother says he looks better than he has since his accident. She said, "He looks like Matthew again!" Since Matthew's first shunt was put in his eyes always pull to the left and he rarely ever looked to the right. We had always thought that it was because the shunt was over-shunting and now it's been
confirmed...Matthew's eyes are not pulling anymore! Also he would pull his head down...almost like he was in pain...to the left side. (The left side is the side where the bone flap was done.) Since his surgery, he hasn't done it even once. And this was something he would do several times a day. I'm sure Matthew is still in some pain and has soreness from the surgery but I can only imagine the relief he feels from having this surgery done. We have all felt like he must have a constant headache...way worse than any we have ever had...and we have all been waiting on this surgery because we felt it would be the start to new things for him. Thanks to God things are looking really good. Please keep saying those prayers. They are being felt. Hopefully I will have a lot of new and exciting updates about Matthew in the near future!
Thank you God for this wonderful miracle you are performing in front of our very eyes!
This picture was taken a while back. I was at one of Matthew's games and he was warming up to pitch. I miss him so much!!!!!

Hey This is Mikey I'm glad to hear he is doing better. The Lord has performed another miracle and the prayers will still continue for Matthew. I have ask several people friends and even people I don't even know to pray for him and your husband. I think he will come out of this and maybe one day play the great game he loved to play baseball. I'm still in the process of trying to get our website done for our softball team. I'm still trying to work on getting couple more sponsors. As soon as get this done I will send the link so you can give it to him. I'm getting ready to get some jersey's made and some hats with his name on it. It may take awhile to get it back but if you could send me his sizes for a jersey and hat I will send them to you once there made. I hope and pray he gets better and maybe one day he can play baseball or softball again. We will continue to pray for him and your husband. If there is anything we could do for your husband let me know. My work we send stuff to the troops. So if we can help just let me know. God Bless!!!!!!!!!!
That's wonderful news! It is amazing how the Lord works. He shows us everyday how he is in control. This is such a milestone for your cousin! He is showing great progress in a short period of time! He is in our prayers. You guys have a wonderful weekend!
