Hope you all had a lovely, safe Easter 🐰🍫😃 We have kept Matthew at home with only contact from Gary & I since March 12th. It's not been easy for us caring alone but Matthew has been a star & is coping well 🤩 Please continue to follow public health guidelines so we can all get through this time healthy & see our families & friends again 🤗 💕 Some pics from last few weeks....

**REMINDER**
**THIS PHOTO IS NOT TODAY!!!** But this is for shock factor!! A few years ago, Matthew was taken by ambulance & minutes after this photo, he was taken into resus as he was vomiting, his airway full of mucus & couldn't maintain his oxygen levels.... Matthew had a "common cold"!! We do not know how Matthew would react to Covid-19. Gary & I are working so hard to keep him safe but with people not following guidelines & spreading the virus about, I don't know how much longer we can keep it away! Please, please STOP going to crowded places with your families, stop letting your kids out to play with others & try to reason with your teens to stay in!! We have to act like we have the virus & maintain physical/social distance. Lives depend on it!

I think it's safe to say that Matthew's Building Blocks, the support we got & Matthew's new rooms were the absolute highlights of our decade 😄 Life-changing for sure!! 💕
Matthew's health has generally been good in recent months but he hasn't been well over Christmas. Today was a better day though 🤞 Wishing you & yours a very happy & healthy new year 🎉🥂

The struggle is real trying to get out & about with Matthew these days. The timing has to be right with "toileting", feeding & napping. Getting him in & out of the car takes time & energy, not to mention that chair is not exactly light-weight 💪
However, we really do appreciate these lovely, short excursions when we can get them 😄 We had a lovely hour in Newbridge 🌞 And we have an assessment for a powerchair this week... 🤞

Matthew turned 15 yesterday 🎉🎂🎈 He had a brilliant day celebrating with family ❤ The celebrations were topped off today with a visit to Swords fire station where his buddy, Firefighter Al, gave him the grand tour & put him through his paces 😉 🚒 Very grateful to Al & C Watch for making the special visit happen 😃
