Dear Friends...


Dear friends, just to let you know that I may not be around to visit your blogs for a while. My dear son Matthew is gravely ill in hospital in the Intensive Care Unit fighting for his life after complications from emergency major surgery.  His immune system is already compromised from the Multiple Sclerosis so that is not helping him at all. Yesterday every hour of life was a blessing, he is very ill and on Life Support and dialysis to give his heart and body a rest. We are just taking each hour and day as it comes, I don't know what the outcome will be. The nurses and doctors are wonderful, they are caring for him 24hours a day, the Councillor has been very comforting.
My daughter and other son have been of great support to me and Matthew's father.
I was called into the hospital at 6.45AM yesterday as his condition had deteriorated, he has stabilised a little but is not out of danger. Not much we can do but be at the hospital and go in to see him when we are allowed.
I will get back to you soon, hopefully with some better news.

Sincerely, your friend Dianne

Thank you everyone for your very kind wishes and prayers for Matthew, it is comforting for me to read your comments when I feel so helpless, confused and afraid for him. I wanted to thank you all earlier but life as I knew it does not exist anymore.
Every day I hope for a great improvement in his condition, for him to be fully awake, I talk to him and I'm sure he can hear me because yesterday his eyes opened slightly when I and his sister said his name, though it was a very vacant look... apart from that he remains very much the same.
There may be a sign of progress in one of his vital signs but a setback in another, today his condition was considered stable. He is still on life support for his breathing, dialysis to help his kidney function and clean his blood, many amazing and complex machines which have taken over the work of his organs to help his body rest and repair. The nursing staff and doctors are wonderful, dedicated and caring people.
He is alive, so where there is life there is hope.
Thank you all for your concern.
Much love, Dianne.
