It is with extreme sadness and heaviness in our hearts to #update today. Matt had to be removed from life support on #Christmas day in the afternoon.

His parents now have lost their two sons to this terrible nightmare of an #illness. Matt's brother #passed on last year.

My daughter is in pieces.

I beg you to please keep #praying for her, for Matt's parents, and for my son, my daughter in law and my granddaughter as she's being given #birth today.

Thank you so much for your #prayer #nostriches.

I'm at work trying to put on brave face, but it's not easy.
