Journal entry by Michele Hussey

Matt came back to his room after 12 hours in the ICU only to go back this morning.  He’s not well.  He’s very sick.  He’s stable but not responsive most of the time.  They have changed his antibiotic slightly to give him the most potent combination possible.  The pneumonia is making it difficult for him to breathe.  It’s getting more and more difficult to get him well.  We had lengthy conversations with doctors today.  They haven’t run out of options just yet.  

The kids and I and his brother Jason and wife Susan were with him today.  He slept most of the time but did wake up when we were leaving and was able to talk to us.  

When you read this, if you are able to take a moment to send him positive thoughts, say a prayer, anything that you think will help.  Matt is a fighter but he’s getting very tired of the fight.  

We continue to hold onto hope and are staying strong for him.
