Hey everyone, It’s time.  After 2 weeks of going round and round within the Kaiser system we’ve come to the conclusion that they just won’t and can’t provide at the Kaiser Hospital, San Diego the appropriate therapy.  They have him there as a captive withing their system and because of the lack therapy he recieves we will have him brought home.  Lisa and I are in the process of buying equipment and setting up therapy for Matt at home as well as buying a van for his outpatient care.  We all feel, along with 4 rehab facilities from the outside of the Kaiser system that this is important  at this time for Matt.  We will probably have to contract a physiatrist on our own if one is not in the order for Matt when he leaves.  Matt is doing very well on his own now with all that we are doing, he continues to do things from one day to day the next that seem to indicate it’s all coming back together.  The nurses and Lindsey now have seen Matt repostion him self twice on his own from his back to one side and that’s huge from where he was just 4 months ago at the time of his injury.  We had Matt outside yesterday for an hour and a half and he did very well with that.  He watched the sunset on the clouds and you could see and only imagine what must have been going through his mind at the time.  We have our house almost ready for Matt’s home coming and are setting up furniture and equipment as we recieve it.  Thanks for your continued interest and support.  We will post a date of discharge when that is available.

Mario
