Hey Matt- I heard a rumor that you are starting to get pissed off at things- WAY TO GO!!!!!!!!! A true sign that you are getting back to your old self. I'm sure that seeing your own "stuff" around has helped.
As soon as we get Lexi graduated from 8th grade and Blake through the state baseball game, we will be over. Probably early next week. Until then- we love you and can't wait to see you. xoxoxoxo

God bless you all--so glad to just read that you're home. Was a tad concerned when there wasn't an entry for a few days!!!!! Not that any of you have much to do. Good luck with the therapy---Matt, you Brat, you're tough and determined, so do it up right. On my way to Mansfield to watch GSA take on Searsport-the only team to beat them twice this year--should be interesting. Love and hugs to all, Gumma

Heather, just read your update. Obviously, it was a tear-jerker. It is so wonderful to have such a support system from your family and friends. Like I said at the hospital that morning, there was no other way this could turn out. We all love Matthew and can't imagine anything short of him getting back to a somewhat normal life. I can't wait to see you all (I miss Bob's stories). We love you.

Dear Heather, Bob & Matt......Ashton & I are so happy for you this morning. We could picture you in your own kitchen, at your own table, with that great view of the lake - I imagine you weren't the only ones who were happy though, dear old Yogi must have been nuzzling right up close to his long lost family. Our invitation is still open, so whenever you are ready now, come on down! We both send love and wishes for a great future from here on.

YEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!! Way to go Matthew! I am so proud of all of you. I bet your beds felt so good last night. We, the whole Wessel family, was ecstatic to hear the news. You have all worked hard- probably harder than you have ever worked this past month. You deserve to be home now. While we are very anxious to visit, we know that you may be inendated with people. We will try to hold off...
we'll see how well we do.
All of our thoughts, prayers, good wishes and kisses are still being sent your way- only this time to Otis, not Bangor! Way to go Peasleys!

MATT ~ It must be SOOOO wonderful to be home! Our family is just one of hundreds who are so happy for you. I'm sure they couldn't have taken better care of you at EMMC, but H O M E.......probably never felt better! What a remarkable young man you are. You just keep that recovery going, slow and steady, as well as that Matt Peasley determination that we've all read about throughout this past month, and you will be healed before you know it. Bobby and Heather ~ None of us can begin to even imagine how you have made it through this past month, but through God's graces you have, and in the process have been such an inspiration to parents everywhere. Of course, as parents, we all have unconditional love for our children, but to actually witness the selflessness of your love ~ well, it's been amazing. Enjoy your home like never before and May God Continue to Bless the three of you with nothing but progress. Best Wishes. Thank you Nancy for the website updates and Heather it was really great to read words from you this morning. I'll call later this summer and see if you'd like that pie. With love and admiration ~ the Cote Family

CONGRATULATIONS MATT,BOBBY, & HEATHER!!!! I updated today and said you would be home soon...well I guess to heck you got home soon. TODAY! I am so happy for all of you, and keep getting plenty of rest. Don't try to cram all of those visits in too soon. Although I can't wait to see you all. I've been holding on to that hug you gave me Heather! I miss and love you all so much. The whole family wishes you nothing but the best. We're so proud of you Matty!

Hip, hip, hooray! So glad to have you home, Matt! I've been waiting to hear this news for some time, now! There's no place like home and I believe you'll heal all that much faster being there. I'm just a hop, skip, and jump away and would like to come visit you when you're feeling up to it. You think physical therapy is hard, wait until you try to see all of your friends and family who have anxiously awaited your arrival home! I'll be lucky to see you by November! Seriously, though, I am thrilled beyond words that you're back home.
Heather and Bobby: Congratulations to you! I've thought of you so often and honestly can't imagine having to go through such an ordeal without dying of a broken heart. Your strength and hope not only brought you through this, they brought Matthew as well.
Best of luck to all of you as you continue your road to recovery! You're still in my thoughts and prayers!

Hey matt!!! All I can say is that I love you so much and its been amazing seeing you through this last month... i must say its been a rough one but i always knew you would make it through ok. Life is so short Matt and I am so glad that you in my life, as i know so many other people agree with me on that. Your my little brother and I will do anything to keep you safe from here on out... I love you. And be good to your mom :)

Uncle Bobby and Aunt Heather- I love you both very much. I cant imagen what you two have been through as parents. But you two have been the strongest people I have ever seen. If you need anything you know you can call me and i'll be there.

biddeford, me - Tuesday, June 14, 2005 7:02 PM CDT

Hey Matty. Today I was practicing for graduation and we were walking down to the graduation song and I was thinking about you. I thought to myself it would be totally cool if I got my big brother home for my graduation present. And well yes that would be SO cool, but I would be willing to wait forever as long as you are all healthy to get that present. Anyway, you know me and you know I SUCK at doing 2 things at once, yep, I fell. LOL. It was quite funny MP, I am sure you would have laughed at me and never have let me live it down. Haha, I miss talking to you and having our brother sister talks. ( Those will always have a special place in my heart ) I will be waiting for that present whenever you are ready to give it. I love you handsome.... hang tight.

Peasley's, I am sure I will be seeing you soon. Hang in there and everything is going to go just fine from here. Love to all of you!

Blue Hill , ME USA - Tuesday, June 14, 2005 4:30 PM CDT

matt, its been some time since i wrote in this. for one i didnt know what to say. and for two i didnt know if it would be the best thing... i was recently informed that you became aware that the accident occured in my car..and yes fuck my car is does have bad karma...i can assure you and all to read that my next car wont be black or an avilon.(wix and i decided on this) i understand that things weren't the very best the night of...but also that we had talked a little...time will tell and hopefully we can have a friendship, for through all these though days i have come to realize your more valuable then i had realized and to throw out everything complety would be nonsense. i am more then willing to help you through whatever you need, because i feel thats what friends are for. it has been a month exaclty from today.. yes i am carless which resembles freshman year:)..but who cares cars are replacable but friendships aren't... whatever happened in the past can stay in the past and now is the time to work on the future.
Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
stay strong and pull through it... every one knows you can you have so many people behind you who love and support evrything you do.. only look at the best that can come of this all...

Mattypie! I haven't forgotten about you that is for sure...I still think of you 24/7 no matter what I am doing. I've been so busy with graduation things, and even though you weren't there to see it, I had you with me the whole time. At my graduation party, Mom put out plenty of pictures of you and I. We can't wait to come and see you. I bought you a balloon to bring to you when you came home, but then at prom Mitch told me that they were keeping you a little longer. It's okay though, you'll be out soon enough. It was only for the best. I MISS YOU SOOOOO MUCH! KEEP GETTIN' STRONG! <3
*When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you're traviling seems so uphill, When your feeling low and the stress is high, and you want to smile but all you do is sigh, When your cares are pressing you down a bit- Rest if you have to, But dont you quit. Success is failure turned inside out, The silver is in the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far, So, stick to the fight when you're hardest hits- Its when things go wrong,YOU CANNOT QUIT!!!*
I was reading through things, and found that. Everything reminds me of you Matty! Love you so much!

Blessings to you Matt. We're sorry you're not quite home yet, but it won't be long now. Life is full of those small disappointments along the way, but what we take with us from those times is what makes the rest of life so wonderful. You just continue healing dear and remember to be patient, even if it's hard to be at times. We are all continuing to pray daily, if not hourly, for you and your Mom and Dad, sending good thoughts and love to the "Three Amazing Peasleys." God Bless You, Matt, Bobby and Heather.

Hey matthew- hope all is well at EMMC these days. Haven't heard in a few days and just sitting here with my fingers crossed that all news is good news and you will be on the road to Otis sometime this week. But you gotta make sure all is ok with you first. Once you get home- you need to be able to stay there!!
Thinking you you all often and hoping Matt continues to get stronger each day. I know you must be anxious to get him home. I just know he will make great strides being in his own home with familiar surroundings all day long.
Take care Matt- know we love you and can't wait to get you back up and going again soon. Work hard buddy- give em hell!!!!!!!!!!!!

I graduate in 4 days, then I will be in GSA and you will have to talk to all the little boys about not messing with your little sister. I know you love doing that ;-) hehe. I was talking to Blakey last night and he was like I had a dream about MP last night and it was soo weird cause I had a dream about you too. You are on everyones minds all the time.. I never stop thinking about you. Someday you are gonna look back on this and know that you can do anything. I love you so much and I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU PLAYA! The time is ticking and soon it is gonna be time for you to get out of there. Can't wait.....

Peasley's, Look at everything Matty has done.... He is so amazing and words can't describe how much he means to so many people. He is such a fight. My love is with you all.

With All My Love,

Matty, I am soo proud of you, its hard to believe that about a month ago i heard about your accident, and now... you are doing so well. You are one of the toughest people I know and I cant wait to see you pull through 100% and be out of the hospital. You gave everyone a pretty good scare, but not a day has gone by that I have not thought of you and prayed for your recovery. You are an incredible person, once again I am soo proud of you

After you are home and completely settled in, I will come visit you. I haven't seen you since before my trip to Key West, and I'm way overdue for a visit. Counting down the days til I see those "BIG" teeth and that adorable smile of yours...Love you lots Matt.

*Matty P* Dont worry alittle while longer in the hospital wont be thhaatttt bad. I really cant wait for you to be out though. Just knowing you are in the comfort of your own home and surrounded by friends and family will make me feel alot better. Im so proud of how you got through this..(you practicaly made it look easy. Not that im willing to go through it.) But you are just extrodinary and such an inspiration. You are amazing Matty and even if this has been one of the hardest most trying things youve ever gone through..always remember how everyone pulled together and prayed, loved, and thought of you night and day. And your parents..hug them and tell them you love them everyday. They are two of the most amazing people. You've got a loving, caring family who would do anything for you.
Youve made us all proud. Keep up the recovery Matt-- you are doing great! <33 Kelly

MP, To say I wasn't kinda upset when I read that you werent coming home would be a lie. I was so excited and ready to see my big brother again, but AMMC is where you need to be right now, and I understand that. ( Not saying I won't be totally physiced when you come home. hehehe ) I guess its more computer talk for me. I miss ya Playa and I can't wait to read the words " Matthew Peasley is coming home!!!!!! " in this site. I love you more then you would ever know and I will always be here as your sister. It is my duty :-)

Bobby and Heather, I think that you made the right choice no matter how much everyone wanted him home. Hang in there and stay strong. Love to both of you guys!

Matthew... words can not describe all the thoughts running through my mind right now... I'm soo excited that you're coming home!!! I'm soo thankful to your aunt for talking to me and keeping me somewhat sane throughout this process... You have an EXTREMELY supportive family and like a million friends who have all proven their love to you... I'm just about speechless... and believe me that doesn't happen a lot! So consider yourself special(which you are!) I realize that you are going to have soo many people calling your house to come and see you so I'm going to let you and your parents get settled in for a while... I miss you dirtbag! I love you hunnie and just know that I'm thinking of you!

Heather and Bobby... jeez you must be completely estatic right about now!! I'm soo happy for you and I love you both. You are such inspirational people and you both mean soo much to me... You have always welcomed me into your home... I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you have done for me... I'll be seeing you soon!!!

Oh What Wonderful News!!! We are so thankful and so happy for you that home is just one day away. Dear Matt, Bobby and Heather ~ I'm sure it's been a month that most of us cannot even begin to imagine. But, from Brewer to Ellsworth and every town around and in between has had everyone pulling and praying for the day when Matt gets to go home with Mom and Dad. Thank you God, for answering all of our prayers for the Peasley Family to once again be together at home. Matt, you have done an amazing job thus far at your recovery and our family will continue to pray and send "good thoughts" for your continued success in this journey. May each and every hour bring a little more progress. Those hours will soon all add up and this time will only be a memory. God Bless Each of You. Continued stength and love comes your way from the Cote Family. P-Spot ~ Sachi's been thrilled with your phone calls and seeing you last night was truly wonderful for her. Bobby, thanks so much for keeping in touch with her. It's meant more than you realize. I'd love to visit later in the summer ~ Do ya'all like blueberry pie? Love, the Cote Family

Dear Peasley Family: So glad to hear you are coming home. Justin was at EMMC for two weeks a few years back and it felt so good to come home!! I know how you will feel after "living" at the hospital. We are really happy for you and wish you all the best.

Goodmorning Matt, Heather and Bob: What wounderful news!! You all get to go home, and all be a family again. We know that the road to full recovery is still an intensive one, but Matt, you have come such a long way, and we all know that if you put your mind to it, you will work real hard to get back on the right track. (remember that wood pile is still there....waiting for you!!!) :) Once you get home and get back into your own environment, you will be surprised how much faster recovery may go. I think alot of us will miss visiting the web-site. Its been our way of staying in touch without bugging your oparents with phone calls. Matt, remember how much love and support you have had over this time. There are alot of people out there who care about you. Good luck your first day home. And all our prayers will be with you. Lots of love, Mike, Laura and Chris.

Matthew, Matthew, Matthew- home will be so nice to get back to- for you and your parents. Sleeping in your own bed in your own room will be awesome. I know you will make huge gains once you get home. I am totally amazed at your strength, power, determination and good fortune. Who but you could be in such rough shape 3 weeks ago and still manage to talk about girls! You little stud you.
Can't wait to visit. We certainly will give you time, but are so excited to see you too. Gotta see you with my own eyes. Also want to hug and kiss you too. You are one lucky fella Matthew. Family, friends, and even a few enemies(haha) have done nothing but wish you well. You listened and now are headed home. Good for you.
Love you honey and am so pleased at your progress. I knew you would do it! Loves, hugs and kisses to you and your fantastic mom and dad! Have a wonderful bumpy ride home to Otis !! See you real soon. XO!

Mattttttttttty, man oh man, I have not stopped thinking about you all day long today. I had a problem today and I thought I was going to go insaine, but then I thought about how much strength you have and how much you have gone through and it made me think about how dumb I was to think that. You are my hero MP, you amaze me so much. I am so excited to finally be able to talk to you and see you. It has been WAY to long. I miss the hell right out of you Playa. We need to set some " Lexi Matty ( Brother Sister ) time apart for us to hang out so I can fill you in on everything. I love you so much Matthew Robert Peasley, you are such an amazing person. Keep it up Playa, and I can't WAIT to see you. Hang Tight love!

Bobby and Heather, Now I know where all of Matty's strength comes from. You both have been through a lot and to come out on top, must make you both feel amazing. Give yourself a pat on the back and a huge hug from me. I will see you both soon I am sure. Love to you both!

Matt, I am so proud of all your hard work and determination. I know that the road ahead will continue to be a time of patience and recovery for you, but I know that you are certainly up for the challenge, as you have proven to all of us over the past 4 weeks. Keep up the good work.

Ellsworth, ME USA - Wednesday, June 8, 2005 7:56 AM CDT

Matta P The minute I saw you in the emergency room, I knew you would come back to us. I knew that your strength, that wonderful stubborness, and that incredible sense of humor would push through anything that was thrown at you. A few days after you were admitted, I came into your room and heard those familiar words "HEY Gam" and my shattered world became whole again. I have always told you that you are my best thing and you have proved it now more than ever. When you finally get to read this website, you will know how many people prayed, hoped, willed you to get well again. And all of us will be there with you every step back to full recovery. So, big guy, get home to your house with your wonderful parents and we will all see you there. My grandson, my protector, my best thing, words cannot describe how proud I am of you and how very much I love you.

Hey honey- you never cease to amaze me!! I am hoping the CT scan went(goes?!) well so you and you parents can get home. Am confident you will make even quicker progress once you are in familiar surroundings. I am so proud of you and how quickly you are getting back to your old self. I know it will take time- but thats what you've got- lots of time.
Think about you much of the day, all of you. It is still in many of our family conversations with Blake and Lexi. All of those thoughts are headed your way! Here's to going home soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Matthew- the pool is up and running. Can't wait for you to come and swim in it. All the sun and fun we've had poolside- ready for it again. By summers end- I expect you here!!
Just got back from Montreal with 22 8th graders! Boy- do I have a few stories for you!! I needed to hit the bar by the end of it, but I was a good teacher and chaperone! You would have been proud of me(or telling me I should have hit the bar!!)
Glad to hear of your parogress- keep it up honey and we will see you hobbling around the streets of Blue Hill soon. Can't wait to see you in your new glasses- does that mean I can throw away your contact cleaner from my bathroom??
Bob and Heather- hang in there. Sounds like there is much progress happening in those walls these days. Can't wait to give you both big hugs. Until then... stay tough and take those few moments for yourselves.

Hi Bobby, Ashton wanted me to get you on the phone one night this week and I had to explain the situation to him. He called Maryann the other nite, and talking to her made him feel better. We think of you and Heather all the time and certainly pray for your strength and endurance. We try to put ourselves in your place, but it is impossible to imagine what you are going through. Remember how Ashton laughs about "walking five miles to school - uphill both ways" ? Well this is how I imagine it is for you both - even when things improve, it's still "uphill". Heather, I am so happy that you have Sara there with you. Matthew, you probably remember what a boxing fan Uncle Ashton is, well he says to tell you that he is right there in your corner, Champ. Nancy, I can't add much to what everyone is saying about your journal - we all look forward to your writings - Uncle Ashton is proud of his "favorite niece". Love to y'all from RAINY Florida! Joy

Hi Matt, Bob and Heather: The sun is shinning and Matthew is doing pretty good. That is great news. Hey Matt...good job on using the crutches, if you keep doing well with them, your parents won't be able to keep you down. :) You keep taking one day at a time, you are doing a great job, and we know that you will continue to do so. God's angels are still around you, helping you through the hard times, you keep leaning on them and they will continue to help you through. Bob and Heather, we try to imagine what the two of you are going through, but it is impossible. Our hearts, our strength and our prayers are with you every day. If Matt didn't realize how much love his parents had for him before (as most teenagers don't) he will when he is further into his recovery. Matt's angels are with the two of you too. Hang in there.. Love Mike, Laura and Chris

Matt, Bobby, and Heather

Just sitting here at work thinking of you guys. So i figured i'd leave you a message. You guys are all doing great .... you've got to be some of the strongest people i know.. Just stay strong and things will be alright..maybe not right off but you know matt's not about to miss out on too much...if i know him like i think i do, he should start getting really mad about the whole situation right about now.. and we all know what happens then. He'll be back and ready to go cruise the strip before you know it. I just want to tell you guys how proud i am of all of you ...i love you all...Good luck

Matthew Robert Peasley! I definately just did an update, but then it got deleted. Oh well, you are worth all the time in the world. Man, look at you go! Got new glasses, workin' on the crutches, new floor. I just loved reading your update, and I can't wait to read the next one. The first day the sun was beaming down on my way to school, I said out loud to myself "Matt is having a good day." I could feel it, I just knew it. You've got quite the road ahead of you, but I know that you will do just fine. You are Matt Peasley now. I wish I was there with you, but I am as close as I can be,and just know that I am routin for ya day in and day out. I love you tons!
Much love from Mom, Dad, Jess, and Jenna as well! =)

The first day the sun started to beam down on my way to school, I said "Matt is having a good day." I knew it. I can't wait till I can see you, and I know I've still got some time to wait, but I would wait forever if I had to Matt. I love you so much, and I am looking forward to reading your next update. Don't beat anybody with those crutches!!!
Lots of love also from Mom, Dad, Jess, and Jenna!

Hi Heather, Bobbie and Matt:

I continue to pray for all of you. Not just Matt's recovery, but for faith and continued support for Heather and Bobbie.

While as a parent I can certainly appreciate your desire to limit Matt's visitors, I just want you to know that my heart is with you always. Sometimes it is hard to focus on my daily life. As I've told you, I can only imagine what you must be going through, and I put myself in your shoes often. I feel as though I have abandoned you when I don't visit, but I know that isn't how you feel. I just wanted you to know the love I and the rest of my family have for all of you, including your extended families. We all appreciate the updates and look forward to being able to enjoy your company in person once again. GOD willing that time will be soon.

Love

April, Tom, Christopher, Tiffany and Kyle GOEHRINGER

First to Matt: God Bless your courage and your will. As your Aunt so eloquently has stated, God is watching over you...at first He carried you and supported you when you could not do it on your own. Now He is healing you and giving you the courage you need to press forward each day. God Bless You.
Second to Heather and Bobbie: God is with you both in your courageous and loving watch over your child. He has you both in His care, working through you to watch and pray and help the healing process, for each of you and especially Matt. God Bless You Both.
And third to Nancy: You are truly an angel. Thank you for your detailed, loving and faithful messages. They are so helpful to us all as we try each day to take a minute and to thank our Lord for his miracles and loving kindness to this wonderful family and our own families. Thank you. God Bless.

Hi to everyone,
I am Heather's Mom, Sara, but Matt knows me as Gam, so Gam I am... Just wanted to tell you all how much I have appreciated your posts. They make me laugh, they make me cry, but most of all they make me realize how much you guys love and support Matt. I told him yesterday about the web site and he smiled that wonderful smile and he said "sweeeeeeeeeeet". Someday he will read all these fantastic messages and understand the love you have all given to him. You have NO idea how much it has meant to me and to all Matt's family. I want to hug you all, so until I can do it at Matt's house, consider yourselves hugged for now...
Love to you all,
Gam

I can see you now, racing everyone down the hallways and doing whatever you have to do, to win. I am gonna be gone tomorrow and Friday, so I will write to you again on Saturday morning. Hang Tight!

I can see you now, rolling down the hospital hallways looking for cute nurses. * Wink * haha. Typical Matt Peasley if you ask me!!

Hey MattyMatMat! I am so glad to hear that you are back in track, and still doing wonderfully with your recovery. I knew you would. I still haven't stopped thinking about you ALL the time, but everytime I just keep telling myself and others that you are going to be just fine, it's just going to take time, and Matt, you take all the time you need, cuz we are all waiting, and hanging in very patiently. These updates are so great, and I think so many of us would be lost without them, and I'll tell you...there would be a line at that hospital waiting just to hear from a nurse. Mom has been digging out old pics of You, Mitch, and I and it just makes me smile so much. I will be sure to bring some in. We've been friends for so long, and I just love you to peices Matty. Oh yes, and speaking of all this rain...there's gonna be one big rainbow, and that's gonne be you shinin' through! And, I'll tell you what quote is so true.."Anyone who thinks sunshine is pure happiness, has never danced in the rain." cuz everytime that I read a new update and hear how well you are doing it is the happiest moment of the day. =) I read a quote recently and all I could picture was your recovery...*One of the secrets of life is to make stepping stones out of stumbling blocks.* Love you so incredibly much...keep hangin' in there! :)

Mom, Dad, Jess, and Jenna send many hopful wishes your way. You know you're like family to them as well. Dad even stopped in to see your Pop. As soon as we all can come in, you know we will. You and Mum have always had a great closenesss as well as me with your parents, and she says to get the heck out of there. Jenna on the other hand "Wuv you Mawtt, what up dawg?"

Good Evening Bobby Heather and Matt,
Matt it is good to here you are back in rehab. We are praying for a complete recovery for you. You will certainly need it to get up the West Shore Rd. It's a mess with all this rain. I don't think the sun has shined since you went in to the hospital, so I think it is time for some big changes. You getting better and the sun coming out. I don't think that is to much to ask. So keep up the good work.. Bobby and Heather we are continuing to pray for your strength and peace of mind through all of this. Better days are ahead. If we can do anything just let us know. Love Dennis Tricia Tia and Tara

It makes my day when I hear about your success with all of this. I love you and I will see you in a few weeks.

*Psssht* :)

Uncle Bobby and Aunt Heather- I love you both very much and i am so glad I got to see you both today. I miss you like crazy and i wish i could be there with you two and matt every day. Just know I love you and I will be there whenever i can. I'm only two hours away if you ever need anything.

What great news to hear that today was a good day. Dear Matt, I prayed that the last bump in the road would be your last. I'll keep that one going. Our son, Hansie, Sachi's lil bro was hit by a car three summers ago and almost lost his leg, but he didn't. He favors the saying "Scars are like tattoos, only with better stories." You sure will have some stories to share. Have another good day tomorrow, Matt. Just remember to go easy on yourself. It will all come to you in time. Bobby and Heather ~ Continued strength I pray for you. Sachi told me you haven't left the hospital once. Matt is such a lucky young man in so many more ways than the obvious. God Bless.

Heyy Matthew! I thought id check up on you and see if anything new was here.. but as said many times before "No news is good news". I Hope youve had a restful, peaceful weekend and you have continued to improve. You know.. i think you should get outa that hospital because i really dont think the sun is gonna shine till you do. However, i can put up with all the rain in the world as long as you continue to recover. Take as much time as needed as long as its all up hill from here. (which im sure it will be)

Anyway i was just thinkin of you. Keep up the good work matthew! <3 you

*Bob and Heather* Hope all is well with you and you have caught up on some much needed rest. You two are terrific parents ( I can say that with out even meeting you)=) remember to smile and may love and prayer carry you through the upcoming weeks.

Good Morning Matt, Bobby and Heather ~ Just wanted to say hello and once again let you know we are all continuing to prayer daily and then some, for the three of you. Matt, keep up the great job of getting better. It isn't luck or chance that has as many people caring and praying for your continued success with recovery, but sheer love and respect for one fine young man. You sure have made wonderful impressions on a great many folks throughout your life thusfar. Breathe all the love in and let a little more healing occur. Bobby and Heather, Peace be with You, and may there be only forward gains from this point on. God Bless You All.........the Cote Family

Hey Matty, I can't really sleep right now, which isn't good since I need to get up early tomorrow. It is so funny how much you can complaine about a person and then when something like this happens, you realize how much you love them. I have always loved you like a brother MP, I just never relized how much, til this happened. You are such a great person Matty and I will always remember the little tricks you taught me. ( How not to get caught, how to beat people up, how to always be nice to the people you hate, cause one day you will need them, and my favorite how to be a awesome person) I will never forget any of those things. You are such a fighter and you are doing so amazing. Keep it up stud. I can't wait for the brother sister date!!
<3<3

Bobby and Heather, As you read above, Matthew is an amazing person who has a huge heart. He is so strong and can make it through anything ( as you are seeing now ) I have always know that he was a strong guy, but this just makes it more clear. Hang Tough. God Bless.

God bless you Nancy for keeping us all updated on Matthew's progress. It is much easier than wondering what is going on.

God bless you Matthew and may He continue to aid in your recovery. Set backs are hard but with all of the love and prayers your only road is uphill to a complete recovery.

God bless you, Heather and Bob, for we all know your time is a rough road right now. Remember we are all with you and praying for you and Matthew.
God Bless and keep you in His care.

Matthew, enough of the roller coaster ride! Smooth sailing from here on out. I was again relieved to hear that you are back on the right track. Keep up your strength and fight the good fight - they never said life was easy. You have a lot of love and support to guide you along. I will check in everyday but hope to hear nothing until Monday and remeber that "NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS WITH...", well you know.

Goodmorning: Matt, if you have never believed in the power of prayer, now is the time to re-look at that. When we were all asked to to say extra prayers, we all did, and again, another small miracle came your way. Today is day 13, since the accident, and you have overcome so much. We will continue to pray for small miracles, and pretty soon those small mircles will turn into a recovery. You are in our thoughts each minute of each day. Nancy is doing a great job with the on-line updates. I think we are checking for updates two or three times a day. Isn't it wounderful how family and friends can pull together in times of need! Well, Matt, everyone is pulling for you right now, and have been right along. You hang in there and get strong...that wood pile is still waiting for you!! :) Love Mike, Laura and Chris

Dear Matthew, Today when I went up to see you, I really didn't know what to expect even though I was told you were doing better. After seeing you and even though you didn't recognize me, I was able to leave the hospital tonight feeling much relieved. I believe I'll be able to sleep tonight for a change! I love you, Matt, and am so proud of you. Seeing you interacting with your mother and father made my whole day. I think you realized that you have great parents! God bless you, Matt, Love, Mimmie

Somebody once said "Don't tell me that the sky is the limit, when there is footprints on the moon." Matthew Peasley you can do anything that you set your mind too, and I know no matter what, you do what you want, and you are doing your best, I can feel it. You've accommplished so much in such a short time, just don't tire yourself out too much. Take your time hun, I am just awaiting....along with many many others.
Oh Matty! I was so bummed to hear about your setback, although it could have been much worse and I just keep telling myself that. I didn't expect it, but I know that you are getting better already. You did a super job on another surgery, and I know you will get through anything else that comes your way during this rough time.
*Yesterday is history
*Tomorrow is a mystery
*Today is a gift...thats why its called the present.
Something I have learned throughout all this time. Matthew is a great gift, and everyday that he recovers a little more is an even greater one!
Gosh, Matty I miss you so much boy, and even though I am not in that room with you every chance I can get, I am still with you, just remember that. When you believe, you will achieve =) You can do this! I know it! and...you Will!..what am I saying? You are doing it!

*Matthew* Im so glad that your surgery went well and you are resting and recovering. I was just talking to Judy and telling her how i know that you and I arnt close friends anymore but it doenst make me think of you any less. I wish there were so much more i could do for you. I simply wish that i could take all your pain away and make you better at the snap of my fingers. For the past four years weve been friends ( one of my favorite memories would have to be when we were at Mansfield for a baseball game and didnt realise that it was each other.. and we stopped and looked at each other oddly. We figured it out tho and we spent the duration of the afternoon watching the game together. Or how about your obsession with "ice candy".. hehe) Its times like those that i can look back and smile on. and even when we go long periods of time with out talking to each other.. You always stay the same Matty P and give me that big brilliant smile of yours. Its an irriplacable picture in my mind. You've touched the lives of so many and it shows. You have a golden heart and such a wonderful personality. And the most amazing family to supoprt your every need. You stay strong and put all that will power and determination to good use. Im thinkin about you =) chin up* <3 you!

To Matt and Family, although I don't know you personally, my heart goes out to you all. Having had a family tragedy myself I know how wearing it can be on you physically, emotionally and spiritually. All the unanswered "why's"... but I've learned to trust in God completely and that with His help you CAN make it through this... and you may never know why. Having 4 children, two of whom are driving... makes every day we get through a gift. My son Christopher goes to school with Matt, and I know he personally is praying for him. And I know this accident has made an impact on Christopher as well as all the other students at EHS... from all the entries in this guest book and all the updates on Matt's condition, it sounds like you have a really strong boy there! I'm sure your love for him is aiding in his recovery. This is a great site... it allows you all to see how many people this accident has touched, and the affect it's had on so many lives. My prayers will continue for a speedy recovery and for strength for all family members!!

Hey Matt! You're climbing a mountain and it's not unusual to slide back when you take a step...the important point is that you keep taking those steps. Two steps forward, one step back...the progress you've made still outweighs the setbacks, so keep on stepping!
I think of you often and pray more than I have in a long time. You're worth it!
I read your guestbook often and it brings me to tears --you seem to have made quite an impact on A LOT of people. What a great world it would be if everyone was loved and cherished as much as you!
Get some rest and keep on climbing that mountain!

Matthew Robert, this is no time for a setback. You gotta kick this thing in the arse and show em whos boss! Now i know you are gonna win this-- you have too. Its not even questionable. My heart tells me that you can overcome this and like i said before.. God would not hand you such a big obstical if he didnt think you could overcome it. I wish you the best of health in the days to come and just know that everybody is pullin for you and you just gotta stick this out and hang in there. Im prayin for you kid! I havent prayed for a very long time, but you are one very worthy cause. All of my love <3 Kelly

Bob and Heather* Be strong, and even when its hard remember to smile. A Smile sends such a strong vibe and can instantly brighten a day. Matthew has gotten this far.. just imagine what else he has left to show you guys. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. <33

Matthew, we are all hoping and praying that you will come back to us happy and healthy. Hopefully this setback is just that and within no time you will be recovering at the rapid pace we have all been hearing. I can't help but wish you boys were back on the lawn playing tag football. It was always so much fun to watch. Matthew, please take care of yourself. We love you so much.

Bob and Heather, all our love and wishes are being sent to you. Please feel free to call upon us if you need anything - anything at all.

Brewer, Me U.S. - Tuesday, May 24, 2005 9:49 PM CDT

Sometimes you just feel tired
You feel weak and when you feel weak
You feel like you wanna just give up
But you gotta search within you
You gotta find that inner strength
And just pull that shit out of you and get that motivation to not give up
And not be a quitter
No matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse-- Matthew that came straight from your away message. I expect you to follow that because even when the physical therapy gets rough, the hospital food gets old, you get tired of listening to other people.. remember that in time everything will be back to normal. Youve got the most incredible inner strenth of all and so much determination. You're gonna be just fine. Get lots of rest while you can and when times are tough i hope you find comfort in all of these posts. Ever-lasting love from the special place just for you in my heart. <3 Kelly*

-- Bob and Heather, I know i dont know you, but i just think the world of you two. My mom thinks you are the most courageous people. To take this head on and be so strong for not just your son, but for everyone. You are the epitome of AMAZING.

Alright, it's decided. I'm going to go nuts if I don't get to hear from you soon! Just playing with you, I know that you need to get better, I just miss you. I hope that you are progressively getting better so that I can see you and hang out with you again...maybe even get to talk to you sooner than that. You are still on my mind all the time, and I never stop wondering how you are doing...even after the updates...as I'm reading them. Haha :) Maybe I just think too much? It's a good thing you're strong, and are so brave to handle this. God Bless You, and don't worry...you'll be with all of your friends in no time!

Although there is no big news to let us all in on everyday, just to know that there is an every day for you to get stronger and healthier is enough for all of us to keep us going! You aren't missing much good weather - it has been raining cats and dogs since you have been out of commission.

Dear Matt, We all hope your day is going very well. From what I've read in this journal about you, your "superman" qualities and your "determination" will definitely help you through the arduous process of physical therapy. Keep your chin up and when it gets tough, find strength in all the prayers and well-wishes that are coming to you from hundreds and hundreds of people. Keep up the awesome job you are doing at getting through this. And don't worry one iota about anything but healing, because life is patiently waiting your return. Patience is the key and when impatience rears it head, just remember ~ take it easy on yourself. It WILL all come to you with time. God Bless you, dear. Have another day with positive gains (no matter how big or small - they all count)!
Dear Bobby and Heather, May you both have some time for much needed rest, even if you don't feel you really need it. Try to take a few moments for just you two. (This wonderful journal has reconnected a couple of good high school friends, your aunt Kelly & me ~ small world)
Have a Day filled with blessings..love, The Cote Family

Hi...Matt, Bob and Heather:
We are all happy to hear that you are working hard with physical therapy, Matt. The harder you work at it, the sooner you may be able to get home to continue recovering. Remember that everyone is praying for you and your parents. Little miracles are being sent your way every day, Matt. Your job ahead of you will be hard and long, but you have showed all of us that you are strong and determined enough to see this through to the end. You have proven to be a remarkable young man...keep up the good work!! Heather and Bob, hang in there. You have all our love and prayers. Our thoughts are with you daily. Love--Mike, Laura and Chris

Hey all- glad to hear all is going well. Will say that I will miss the daily updates as it has been a lifeline to those of us on the "outside". Even if it is the same old same old. Keeps me feeling like I am closer to you all.

Matt- don't piss the therapists off too much as then they will really make you work! I know how you can get!!!!! Keep your chin up buddy and go for it. Looking forward to seeing you up on the hill soon! xoxoxoxoxo

Bob and Heather- I think dinner out of the hospital sounds like a great idea. You really need to keep yourselves in good working order too! I remember when Nods was at EMMC for a month and it was those few and far between moments of out of the H that really helped me through. Take advantage of it.

Our thoughts are constantly wandering your way- hope you are getting them all

Take Care and keep up the good work!!

Franklin, ME US - Monday, May 23, 2005 9:10 PM CDT

Matty! I am happy to know that you have begun physical therapy, and I know that no matter how much pain it may take, you will get through it. You're still on my mind 24/7, and I find myself thinking often that I had just talked to late that night of your accident. I wish I had never gotten off the phone with u that night, I wish I had been with you, and I wish I could be with you right now. I always loved your big smile whereever I happened to see you, and the way you would laugh at my jokes, even though we both knew they really weren't that funny, I just love the way you are, and I know that you are going to come out as the same Matty that I knew before you went in there. It's probably the most simple times that I've had with you, that I find the best. Gosh, there's so much to look back on, yet so many more to look forward to beginning. Everynight before I go to sleep, and before I say my prayer, I look out my sunwindow at the stars and the moon, and that's when I feel like we're under the same roof. Matty, for every gimpse of stars you can get before you shut your eyes at night, each one is a big ole' hug and kiss from me! You keep it up slugger! So much love and hope sent your way. I hope your night is spent getting plenty of rest, feeling no pain, and dreaming of the good times to come. <3

Heather, I hope you are using the journal to keep track of Matt's great progress. Sounds like Matt's getting to the point where you and Bob need to do something different for Matt; go out of the H to dinner. Take a little break for yourselves. Maybe you think its a little selfish; Trust me,you'd be surprised how much good it will do all of you. Folks from the Registry ask daily about Matt's progress. Looks like you have a great support team around you. Use it.

And to think you thought all I am is a super powerful teacher with limited connections. HE and I decided we could keep the rain going for at least another week.

Shaving, eating by yourself, "Peasleying"- all sounds good to me Matthew. I am so proud of you and your accomplishments- keep em going! With physical therapy starting I am sure you will start working those muscles again. Let me know when you want the creatine!
Bob and Heather- I am hoping you are resting a bit. Let Matt do the hard work for a bit while you watch! Stil think of you daily and hope that you are getting what you need from others. I know of many people who would love to help when you need it. We're anxiously awaiting the time...
Until then- love and hugs to you all. Matt- behave!!

Matthew... I can't believe the progress you are making already!! My parents went to church this morning ( i slept in!!) and my mom said that everyone is still praying for you hunnie... it's amazing how far you've come in such a short amount of time... i realize you have a long road ahead of you but just understand you are an icrediable person and remember God wouldn't put a mountain infront of you that you couldn't climb.... You are such a strong person and you will overcome this... it's going to be difficult but come on you're Matty P!!! Alex is here and she says hi and she misses you!! But I just wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you always and that I love you Matthew... Also... I talked to Bryan last night... He's doing okay... He misses you though.... He sounded okay but i think he misses his buddy!! Have a great day hunnie and I'm thinking of you....

Bob and Heather... Thank you so much for keeping us updated... it helps me get through the day... My parents wanted to express their concern for Matthew and said that if you need anything just give us a call... but i'm sure you've heard that enough!!! I love you both and I can't wait for this summer :) God Bless you both!

I had a dream about you last night.... it was weird because the moment i woke up Matt Wilson called me and told me he had had a dream about you as well... Remember when your dad, you and I were all sitting around the dinner table and we were talking about going ice fishing? well i had a dream you came to meet me in Ellsworth,(just like always!) and that we went out to your house and got all suited up and went out on the ice... haha that reminds me(remember when i was soo amazed that cars could drive out onto the ice? haha) i miss you Matty... You were the highlight of my days... I still got goosebumps everytime your number would show up on my phone... and remember I told you you would have a good time at prom with Kaitey... and you did... you even told me i was right... See you just have to have faith baby... i'm here for you handsome and I love you Matthew with all my heart... i was thinking of going to Mitch's game... he's playing now so maybe i'll swing by... but it's just not the same without you with me.... haha.... jeez... i miss you like CRAZY Matthew... and it's taken a lot for me not to drive up to that hospital... but just keep on getting better baby and just know that once you're out i'll be LIVING at your house :) I love you Matty... Stay Strong baby... your forever in my heart and always on my mind....

When I was a little girl I used to watch this cartoon with a character called Gary Gnu (like the animal)and I remember he used to always say "No news is good news with Gary Gunu's" (said in an announcers's voice kinda way. Yes it is hard to sit and wait to hear about your wonderful recovery but God - I loved Gary Gnu and for the thought of him to come back to me after 25 years I'm all for "omens"! Peole think I'm a little strange when I got so excited about the Gary thing but what can I say - It was Canadian eh! I just read the update and am sitting watching the bay and it is so calm - a reflection of how things are going to run for you from here on out. Always forward.

Matt! I'm so relieved! I can't believe how quickly you are recovering, and I couldn't be happier! I have so much faith in you that you can pull through this, and I wish that I could see you so much. You might get to go home in a couple weeks, and that is so incredible. I wish that I could show you how much I think about you, because it doesn't stop. You've accomplished so much, and I know you'll keep it up...you're strong and can handle anything that life throws at you. Surprisingly, you maintain an attitude while doing so...we all knew you'd come out of this the same Matt you were before you went in. I'm praying for you all the time, Matt. Get better soon so we can get some visitors up in that hospital room! :)

God Bless.

Hey Matt, this is CaCa. I glad to hear that you are doing so much better. You have been in my prayers all the time. I knew that you would make it through this because you are one of the strongest kids I know. Katy and I were looking through pictures and we have some funny ones! Do you remember when we use to go diving for golf balls? Or when we would go to channel rock and the sunfish would attack my feet and I would scream in terror and you and Katy would laugh at me? Yeah, I remember that. Those fish still attack.

Tragic events with happy endings are precious on delicate nights such as this...a deep thought for the day

I know Matty Pies recovery will come out with a happy ending, I feel it more and more everyday. I was just at the hospital today visiting Tyler, right next to Matty. Who knows maybe in a few weeks we'll see Matty and Tyler wheelin' around playin xbox, doin' wheelys, and chasin' down nice lookin' girls. I couldn't help but wanting to sneak in with a nurses outfit and give Matty and you all a great big kiss and hug. Juuust kidding...I was content just being in the room next to him, knowing that he is getting the rest that he needs. I have so much planned out for when that boy can have visitors. Bob and Heather, I hope you had a good anniversary, you both have been terrific and so strong, and with Matty getting better and better everyday, what a good gift. God is watching down on Matthew, and he's got an angel by his bedside. We've been so close for so many years, and it will never change...no matter what. I love you so much, and you've got special place in my heart. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Ellsworth, ME USA - Thursday, May 19, 2005 7:27 PM CDT

Matt, though progress is slow at this point, I know that I have nothing to worry about in knowing that you'll get better and be just fine. I think about you more and more every single day, and my letters are out of control :) I know that you had a rough night last night, but somehow I saw it as a good thing that they thought it alright to reduce your pain medications because to me it meant you were ready for it...seems like you're ready for anything. God is certainly on your side, and I'm praying for you all the time. Matt, you are so incredibly brave and strong in fighting this, and I can't wait to see you again...but in the meantime, I hope that you are resting and focusing all of your strength on getting better while the rest of us pray, and have faith in knowing you'll come out of this the same Matt that you were before you went in. I miss you so much, and keep that attitude going strong :)

God Bless.

Though I don't know you personally, nor do you I, I wanted to express my deepest sympathies for what you are going through right now. My husband was on one of the respinding ambulance crews to the accident and we have followed Matt's progress as best we can since that day.

We are extremely pleased to hear about Matt's steps, small though they may be, they are still steps.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family durring these trying times.

Matt, I just saw you at court the other day, (us Beech Hill kids are hoodlums,huh?) haha. When I heard what happened I couldn't believe it. I'm so glad to hear you are doing so well. I got in a car accident earlier this year that was caused by running from the cops while under the influence, It makes me mad that I did something so horrible and came through with only scratches and you didn't do anything and you have to go through all this pain. Im so sorry. My family is thinking about you and the whole Peasley family. I hope to see you soon.

Hey Matthew- take today and rest- sounds like you pooped yourself out yesterday with all of your new antics and bossing others around! Man- you just can't help yourself from being in charge can you?!?!?! I need to dig through our movies and find the one of you and Blake(maybe Duncan too) when you were playing basketball at our house at night and you tries to be so cool and ended up going down over our bank in to the puckerbrush! Yet another trick by Matthew Robert!!

Bob and Heather- I hope you are both finding moments to rest too. Matthew needs you both strong and able! Sound like you are both getting almost as good care as your son- the dinner yesterday sounded great! You need to take today and rest also- it sounds like it is going to be a long haul and you all need to be able to get yourselves through it all. You know we are all here if and when you need us- we are all waiting for the day to go and see you all. Can't wait!! Until then... take care and know we are thinking of you all the time and hoping for a speedy recovery. hugs to you all, Lori

Portland, ME USA - Thursday, May 19, 2005 7:24 AM CDT

Goodmorning Matthew, Bob and Heather:
Matt, good job in your recovery so far. You have come a long way in such a short time, keep taking one step at a time. You are certainly proving how strong of a young man you truley are. When you are well enough to read all these messages from friends and family you will realize all the love and support that is out there for you and your parents. But most of all, Matt, you need to realize the "love and support of your parents." Parents have unconditional love for their children, and you should know that your parents have been right there for you each and every minute, supporting you, caring for you, crying for you and mostly loving you. We all know that you have a long way to go, but you are definitely strong willed and strong minded, and you have proven that since Saturday. Stay strong Matt, and remember we all love you.
Love Mike, Laura and Chris

Peasley Family - Matthew is so tough as you already know. He is making great strides everyday. I am sure you already know this from all the great messages left on this board, but he is so amazing and he can make it through this sooooo quickly. Hang in there and everything will fall into place soon. You have all my love and all my prayers.

Matt I missed you on the ballfield tonight. It was Mitchells first game back so it was also my first game of the season. It just wasn't as delightful without seeing you out there too. You sure have had your blows. Remember when you got hit between the eyes with a baseball and it left the thread marks on your skin. I think you've about scared everyone enough with all your mishaps. I just know that with the speed of your recovery you won't let me down and you'll be on the field opening day next year. Can't wait to kiss your cheeks!! Love Aunt Val
Valerie <vjpeas@yahoo.com>
Holden, - Wednesday, May 18, 2005 10:37 PM CDT

Bob and Heather- Happy Anniversary! I bet there is a lot of relief in both of your hearts just hearing Matt talk again. I know there is in mine. He's probably the strongest kid I know and I'm positive he is going to come out of this tougher than ever. I'm sure the "sign language", though rude, was a very good sign that Matty is working his way back very fast. I'm kind of upset that I haven't been able to make it back up lately. I wanted to call to talk to both of you but nobody could give me a number. Oh well, I will hopefully get up soon and you can count on a big hug from me Heather...oh, and you too Dick! :)

Peas- What a bossy kid you are. You've been that way from the begining and don't ever change it. Those nurses are under YOUR command and we all know that. Can't wait for the day when I can get up there and just talk with you. Keep getting better everyday and don't flirt with the nurses too much. Haha, later dude.

Ohh Matty P. I think you go above and beyond what superman could ever do. You are such a trooper. So stubborn, and it couldnt have shown through stronger at a better time. Your progression just amazes me. I never once doubted your strength, but you are just getting back to your old self so fast. I honestly believe that NOTHING can change you. Im so so so proud of you, i believe everyone is as well. With all those odds against you, you still come out on top. You always will. Matty, you are courageous, brave, inspiring, and you are loved UNCONDITIONALLY. Stay strong. And may God be with you through the rest of this battle. Love you!!

Matt! You're doing so well! I'm so excited to see you again, and you better be ready to watch Troy :) Thank God for these updates in this log because otherwise I'd be a basketcase worried sick! I wish I could see you and talk to you, and it's hard to not have control of something so important, and not to be able to snap my fingers and have you walking out of the hospital! I still write to you all the time, and I'm keeping you updated in the letters about what's going on at school, don't worry-it hasn't gotten any more fun :) I miss seeing you where I'm used to you being, and I think that with all the letter writing I've been doing, my teachers are starting to wonder if they need to give me an office referral to get me to stop...oh well, you're more important! I am glad that I got to talk to Rhysa today, she's a big help and so easy to talk to. Matt, I am so hopeful for you. Don't worry, you'll be just fine, and everything will turn out in your favor, I know it. I can't wait until I can start talking to you again, and I'm so excited to see you and get to hang out with you. I'm praying for you all of the time, and I never stop thinking about you. So many people are pulling for you, and when you can have visitors, if you get sick of the hospital food, I'll get you some McDonalds! God Bless You, Matt, and I'm so relieved to know how well you're doing.

God Bless

Dear Matt, Our entire family is saying prayers for you. God Bless You. What a beautiful tribute to you and your Mom and Dad, to have so many folks praying and wishing you their best. May each and every wish brings a little more comfort to all of you. (It's been so hard for Sachi, having witnessed the entire accident, nightmares are been horrifying her. Would everyone please say a small prayer for her too?) Our very best to you, dear Matt ~ Craig, Kathie, Jeremy, Sachi, Shelbi, Hansie & Alani Cote

Yeah i know it's me again... i'm sorry hunnie i just can't help it... i just got home from youth group and i am having a hard time controlling myself from running up there and just wrapping my arms around you... i just want to hear that you're okay... it's killing me that i can't see that handsome face... i dunno Matty you've got me so worried sick about you... I'm praying for you every moment of every day... there is not a minute that goes by when there isn't something that doesn't remind me of you. getting to school and not seeing your car there waiting for me... or walking down the hall after first period and not seeing you walk by me to meet me for study hall... i can't even go into that classroom anymore... i just get a pass out of there... i know that you're going to be reading this after you're all better but i want you to know that i think about you all the time... you mean so much to me and my family. my mom made those cookies that you love! the ones with the Reese's peanut butter cups in them... remember? haha... good times hunnie... good luck tonight and just know that EVERYONE is praying for you and that i love you Matthew... with all my heart... and i know that once i see you all i'm going to tell you is that i love you... just so that you know...

Heather and Bob- i hope that you have as good a day tommorrow as you can... just know that you're son is a fighter and that he wouldn't be doing as good as he is without your love and support... he loves both of you and i know you know that but sometimes it's good to hear it.... i love you too and you know that if you need anything i'm your girl!! love you and i'm praying for you...

Hey Matty, wow, the things you will do to get out of school! Kids these days. No, seriously, Im praying for you everynight..Its weird how stuff like this happens and then all of a sudden you start praying again...I havent prayed for years, but your worth it matty. Its a mega reality check when you can see that person, you have all the memories of hanging out with you, and all everyone wants is for you to get better. Come on matt...your stronger than anything that could happen to you...Love you so much.

YOu have exceeded all of our expectations and we are all thankful for that. I can't wait until you areallowed to have visitors because i promise i will be one of the first. It's good to hear that you havent changed and you are STILL trying to fight your way out of the situation;) hang in there hun becuase you have come so far and you are getting better by the day. I love you Matt and can't wait to see you keep up the good work~To the family~ Bob and Heather this is a parents worst fear, and matt is lucky to have both of you there to support him.

Dear Matt,
I don't even know where to begin. I think I am an emotional wreck just writing this to you, but u know what? There is happy tears rolling down my eyes. I am so glad to hear about the progress that you are making, and I just picture it all the time. I knew you would recover quickly, you've got a long road ahead of you, but then again, you've always been "Mr. Toughman," well you're really proving yourself now. We have so many wonderful memories, and trust me, there is sooo many more to come. You just wait till you get out of that hospital bed and back home...heck, you might have to kick me out of your house. Seriously Matt, I'd do anything to see you right now. Damn, I'd even wipe your bubble butt if I could! I am counting down the days till I can see you again. I've been to the hospital everyday knowing that I wouldn't beable to see you just yet, but just being outside your room makes me feel somewhat close to you. You mean the world to me me Matty, and I love you so incredibly much! XOXO times a mil....~*Judes*~
Bob&Heather, you know I love you guys so much as well. Matt and I have been so close since...Kindergarten, and you guys have always been wonderful to me. I can't wait to give you both a huge hug. Much love

Hi Matt
I just wanted to let you know that you have been in our thoughts and prayers the moment David Payne told us about your accident. We have many folks praying for you, and tonight at youth group I will share with them the progress you are making. Our prayer for you is out of the book of
Isaiah 53:5 "But He was wouded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; upon Him was the chastisement that made us whole, and by His stripes we are healed".

It was just the other day man when I heard about the accident. It brought me right down, felt like I couldnt get back up, but hearing you are talking and breathing on your own makes me smile man. I miss you and think of you every night, before I go to sleep I see you and me in the Jeep with Charles, we have so many memories, you and me and all of your friends good and bad. Im so glad you are doing better words cant explain. Just think of turtle, turtle, traps, and mike tyson...Hopefully I will get to see you before I leave man...Mr. and Mrs. Peasley you have a great son and if you need anything you can certainly let me know...love you matt

Surry, ME - Tuesday, May 17, 2005 5:15 PM CDT

Matt, it's so weird how this happened so suddenly. I was just with you at the mall for two hours and I was talking to you on the phone off and on that whole night. I'm so proud of you for making the progress that you've made, and I know that you'll be just fine...I pray for you all the time. I've written you so many letters...I have them all for when you're ready to read them :) Judy and I made you a poster, and I brought you some goldfish since that's the first way we talked (haha, "hey, I'm really thinking of asking you for some of those goldfish" "want some? here you go...") It still makes me smile. I can't wait until you can have visitors! I'm going to schedule my life according to the times that you can see people...I can't wait until you're out of there and we can finally hang out since I've been grounded for a month now! (I'm off, by the way :) You've been sweeter to me than anyone I know already, and I've just starting getting to know you recently. For some reason, I feel it-I know that judging by how well you're doing, and your heart, and God, you'll be just fine. I'm so excited to be able to hang out with you, and talk to you on the phone... hospital room or not! You know, it's weird because when I saw Mitch's away message I called you and said "hey, I hope that they aren't talking about you...call me before I go crazy." and then I asked Mitch and...it was. This is a huge comfort being able to feel like in some way, I'm getting to you. I can't wait to give you your letters!

God Bless You, Matt's family. My family and I are praying for both Matt and you every night...God will help Matt to pull through. Thank you for writing this-it helps a lot because of how loved he is at school :) We're all curious, and it seems he's doing wonderful...he's a fighter, and has such a good heart.

God Bless,

Matt I knew you were too strong a person to let this keep you down. You keep it up and prove 'em all wrong. There isn't anything that will keep Matt Peasley down. Thank God your a fighter. You've got a long fight ahead of you so take it easy and don't use all your energy in the first round. We all love you and know you'll be up and about sooner than medically thought. Love ya, Aunt Val#2

Bob & Heather, when this is all over, come on down to Florida for a well needed rest. You know you are welcome anytime! One caution though - Hurricane Season begins in 2 weeks!

To all Matt's family, stay as strong as Matt is being, because that's all he needs (well, maybe some pain meds too :)) And Matt, I knew I'd see the day when u finally got a black eye, but I really was thinking it would take more than a tree. Don't worry, I'm sure the tree started it. Didn't I ALWAYS tell you to buckle up!?! oh well, I forgive ya :) It breaks my heart to see you like this and I can't imagine what you're going through but I do know how determined you can be. I don't think you've ever done ONE thing that you didn't want to (except split wood maybe), and right now I know you want nothing more than to tell us all you'll be just fine. I love ya Matt and I promise I wont take your presence for granted when you come home.

Goodmorning Peasley Family:
Today is a big day! Everyone will be saying extra prayers for Matt today. Matts friends should expect that when Matt sees them, he may be asking for help (with the wood pile) :) Bob and Heather, I bet that wood pile will get done in no time, and you will have enough wood to last for a very long time. :) Matt, there are alot of friends and family who are cheering you on. I told your parents to take one day at a time, and you need to do the same. Keep up the fight Matt, and remember that there is alot of love out there for you. Love, Mike, Laura and Chris

Bob and Heather- if positive vibes could help get you through this, you would be well on your way back to Otis. I have read all of the messages and am just blown away by all of the love, prayers and words of encouragement being sent to you all. What an amazing family you are!

Today will be a challenge I know. Matt is a strong, stubborn and tough guy. I have all good feelings that he will pull through today with flying colors. I feel bad for the doctors around him as he will probably try to punch each one of them. Go for it Matthew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I so wish there were something I could do for you- unti there is - I hope these words give you some comfort. Many loving thoughts are being sent your way.

Hi to Matt and your family, Just know that even though I don't know you, certainly it touches ones heart when it involves a child, no matter how old. I work at the Gen. B.E. Moore School and my daughter, Kathryn is a senior at EHS. Our prayers are certainly with Matt and his family. There is a lot of prayer out there and God is truly listening. I will put you all in daily prayers. Keep fighting as it appears you are and know that the community is there for you.

Hey Matt- I know how you love to fight- well here you go buddy- here's the biggest one of your life. I'm betting on you 100% in this one! I know you've got all of the spunk you need to get through this honey. Thinking of you constantly and sending oodles of love and hugs your way.
Bob and Heather- as a parent my heart goes out to you. It could be any one of our kids. Both Nods and I send positive thoughts and lots of love your way. Blake felt much better yesterday after seeing you - he even said Bob cracked a joke- a very positive sign for a 17 year old. God bless!
