An update from Teresa...

I just spoke with one of my aunts. Matt is still in critical condition. He has a broken hip, his diaphragm was torn, one lung collapsed, and has MASSIVE brain trauma and swelling. I guess that they have finished operating on the brain. He’s currently not waking up from the anesthesia. They are taking another x-ray of the brain. She said that while it’s not a good sign that he’s not waking up from the anesthesia, she sounded a little optimistic about them taking another x-ray. Maybe there’s a chance he will live.

He had been at a friend’s house at a party. He called home and told my aunt he was going to just stay the night there since he had been drinking but then for some reason he decided to drive home around 3 a.m. He hit a pole about one mile from home, the police didn’t come for half an hour and then it took them half an hour to get him out of the car.

Please continue to pray for a miracle and that his life would be preserved and that as a result he would surrender to the Lord!
