Last night we spent time with some of Mat’s friends. We can not begin to help you understand how fulfilling and wonderful it is to here about your Mat. The stories and memories shared are so meaningful to us. There is no story too small or silly. There is no details that are mean and can hurt us. So please considering recording as much as you like. These recordings will be private to you and us (unless you want us to share them).
We understand if you’d like to email us stuff directly. Or are having trouble with the Google Drive upload. Or for whatever reason contact us. You can get us at jwchitwood@gmail.com or triciakae@gmail.com
We are actively working on this site for you to share your photos, videos and stories of Mat. This site will be live forever. Or at least until the AI overlords take over., teehee. The point is please visit as often as you want. Our goal is to update and share each other’s Mat to help, heal, and continue her world. So….. this site will change as we move through this process. We encourage you to engage and contribute in the way you are most comfortable. Your health and happiness is of the paramount priority for us. We also intend to share our own stories, photos, and videos.

Mat’s Mom and Dad
