November 19, 2009 - The day that changed my life. I fell 3 feet and hit a metal box just above my left ear, causing a skull fracture that led to a blood clot, major swelling and a traumatic brain injury. A split second that changed everything.
That day, the doctor told Keri I would never walk or talk again. Ha. Someone once told me it is hard work being a miracle, and I would have to agree. It is an incredibly long road, but I'll get there.
3 years.

I remember when the doctors would say that to Keri and she would reply well they don't know Matt. The doctors didn't know either of you and how strong a team you would make for your recovery, Matt. Thank you both for working so hard. I look forward to seeing how far you will go in the next three years. Much love, Jody
ReplyDeleteFor some mysterious reason, I didn't see this post when I read the October one. Hard work indeed. And a lot to show for it. What you and those closest to you have been doing for these three years is more than words can acknowledge or minds can truly understand. But we can all celebrate your successes and we do!
ReplyDeleteWow you have come a long way Matt congrats to you! I loved Jody's comment little did they know who they were dealing with! Wishing you & Keri a Blessed Christmas & A Wonderful Brand New Year! Our Love to you both! Cindy & Paul (Kevin)
ReplyDeleteYou and Keri are both my heroes!!! We loved having you with us this last week, and you are even more inspirational in person. Grandma LOVED every minute she was able to spend with the Latiolais family, too. We love you!

Hi Matt and Keri,
ReplyDeleteI also just saw this post and look forward to knowing about your progress. It's wonderful that you are making the most out of life, which to me means that you have it all! I just pruned a few crossing branches on 'Matt'... and he's never looked so good... you know what I mean :)
Wishing you both well every day,
Scott
