New Photos

I have posted new photos of Matt's legs as they are healing. To view these photos you can click on http://mattslowerlimbs.blogspot.com/ to get to SGT. Matt Lammers, Photo Page .
Unfortunately, Matt was not able to get to New York to see his friend. Hopefully, John Blakesley will be able to get to Texas to see Matt.
Matt is back into regular therapies and has gotten a replacement leg for the one which he broke while visiting KC. He has not yet gotten his full legs. Soon, very soon...

Great Start to a New Year

Matt's family has enjoyed a wonderful visit with him and his wife and children over the holidays. Thanks for making the trip, you guys!
Matt got to thank Pat Kerr, State Veterans Ombudsman and Operation Outreach, Missouri Veterans Commission, in person for all that she has done for him and his family. Pat and some of her family were traveling through KC and took time to come to visit with Matt. Pat got to try out the chairlift for which she was instrumental in getting funding.

Pat and Matt meeting in person, 1/1/08

Matt will be traveling to New York to visit with an old friend, John Blakesley, who was with him in Iraq on Matt's first tour. Matt will then be returning to San Antonio for rehab and hopefully his next legs which will have knees.
