Matt's on track now


Matt is going to enjoy his summer with no limitations on food. The sad thing is the rest of the family is gaining too. Matt weighs 105.2 today. He is enrolled in his high school for next year. He will be repeating the 9Th grade. He will also be on a IEP program as he under went alot of testing and they came to the conclusion that he has Cognitive Disorder including challenges with Processing speed and Information Processing, Sustained attention/ attention to detail, Executive Function/ Efficiency, Academic skills reduced from pre-illness levels, Anxiety Disorder, and Adjustment Disorder with Depression. With all that said he is ready to go back and we are confident that the Sumner School Dist. will not let him fall through the cracks Academically.

Being "diagnosed" is half the battle when it comes to learning challenges....with Lynn on top of things, he will never fall through the cracks! lol!

Matthew has come out on top with his cancer...and before you know it, he will once again excel academically too...

I hope this will be the summer to remember...let loose and have a blast!

We are continuing to send positive thoughts and warm hugs in your general direction...you are still all an inspiration to many!
